[01] Statement by José Manuel Barroso on the terrorist attacks in Egypt
The President of the European Commission José Manuel Barroso stated : "On
behalf of the European Commission, I express my horror and outrage at the
latest terrorist attacks in the Egyptian resort of Sharm el-Sheikh. I
express our heartfelt sympathy and total solidarity with the victims of
these cowardly acts and their families, and with President Mubarak and the
Egyptian people. The Commission unreservedly condemns terrorist violence,
which destroys innocent lives and cannot be justified in any circumstances.
At this difficult time, the Commission stands ready to provide any
assistance it can to the Egyptian authorities."
[02] La Commission va recouvrer €113,7 millions auprès des Etats membres
dans le cadre des dépenses de la PAC
La Commission européenne a décidé de recouvrer un montant total de
€113,7 millions correspondant à des montants indûment dépensés des
Etats membres au titre de la PAC. Le recouvrement de cette somme est
motivé par des procédures de contrôle inadéquates ou par le non-respect
des règles communautaires sur les dépenses agricoles. Si les Etats
membres sont chargés du versement et de la vérification de la quasi-
totalité des dépenses effectuées au titre de la politique agricole
commune (PAC), la Commission est tenue, quant à elle, de s'assurer que les
Etats membres ont correctement utilisé les ressources.
[03] Financial markets : Inter-institutional Monitoring Group for financial
services re-established
The European Parliament, the Council and the European Commission have
agreed on the re-establishment of the Inter-institutional Monitoring Group
for financial services in order to cover the extended Lamfalussy process.
The Monitoring Group is composed of six independent experts, of which each
institution has nominated two. It has a mandate to assess the progress made
on implementing the "Lamfalussy process" (see IP/02/195) which aims to
create a more efficient system for the EU institutions to prepare, adopt
and implement new legislation to integrate financial markets. The
Monitoring Group will meet for the first time in September 2005.
