Copyright in the Digital Single Market (A8-0245/2018 - Axel Voss) DA

Socialdemokratiet i Europa-Parlamentet bakker grundlæggende op om, at kunstnere skal have en rimelig betaling for brug af deres værker.
De europæiske regler til beskyttelse af ophavsrettigheder har længe været forældede og har ikke været skræddersyet til en digital virkelighed.
Det er vigtigt at understrege, at dette direktiv pålægger udbydere af onlinedelingstjenester nye forpligtelser, men at disse forpligtelser ikke er rettet mod brugerne af disse.
Kommissionens oprindelige direktivforslag var uacceptabelt, og det har gennem hele lovgivningsprocessen været en prioritet for Socialdemokratiet i Europa-Parlamentet, at der blev indsat robuste beskyttelsesforanstaltninger. Disse beskyttelsesforanstaltninger har skullet værne om en lang række legitime grunde til at benytte sig af ophavsrettighedsbeskyttet materiale. Derfor er karikaturer, anmeldelser o.l., der benytter sig af ophavsrettighedsbeskyttet materiale, ikke omfattet af direktivets bestemmelser.
Det har ligeledes været en prioritet, at en række platforme skulle undtages fra direktivet, så eksempelvis online encyklopædier, open source-platforme og platforme med et uddannelses- eller forskningsmæssigt formål nu ikke længere er underlagt direktivet.
Direktivet har også indsat visse undtagelser for nye og mindre virksomheder. Vi vil følge direktivets påvirkning af disse virksomheder nøje.
Skulle direktivet have utilsigtede konsekvenser i forhold til direktivets undtagelser eller dets implementering generelt, vil vi forlange en hurtig revision af direktivet.

Implementation of the Treaty provisions related to EU Citizenship (A8-0041/2019 - Maite Pagazaurtundúa Ruiz) DA

12-02-2019

Tværnationale stemmelister, hvori et antal mandater kan opstille på en fælles europæisk valgkreds, mener jeg, i princippet, er en god idé.
Jeg mener, at tværnationale lister kan bidrage til en mere nuanceret EU-debat, når der både skal sættes kryds ved en national og en tværnational kandidat.
Det er dog endnu uklart, hvordan man ønsker at organisere tværnationale lister i forhold til fordelingen af opstillede. Ved en ujævn fordeling risikerer man at ende med det modsatte resultat af det tilsigtede, fordi nogle nationale interesser risikerer at få forrang over andre. Derfor er det vigtigt, at der er gennemsigtighed omkring et sådant opstillingssystem, før der tages endeligt stilling til spørgsmålet.

Amendments to Parliament's Rules of Procedure (A8-0462/2018 - Richard Corbett) DA

31-01-2019

Vi danske socialdemokrater i Europa-Parlamentet støtter større kontrol med og revision af tillægget til generelle udgifter til kontorhold, som ofte kaldes blyantspenge.
Socialdemokratiet mener, at forslaget i denne betænkning har en stor svaghed, idet revisionen er frivillig for europaparlamentarikere. Vi mener, revisionen skal være obligatorisk for alle.
Det er for os afgørende, at der er klare, ens og kontrollerbare regler, at kontrollen udøves af fagprofessionelt personale, og at samtlige europaparlamentarikere underlægges ens og effektive kontrolsystemer.
