Recalling that some 17 million people around the world were affected by the AIDS virus and that the predicted figure for the year 2000 was 40 million, the rapporteur, Mrs André-Léonard (ELDR, B), said that the fight against poverty was also an important one, since records showed that the disease was most prevalent among the working populations of Asia and Africa. She also called for actions to provide communication, information and training, with special attention given to groups at risk (refugees, migrants, itinerant workers, soldiers, prisoners and prostitutes) and to the socially and economically most vulnerable individuals and communities. In addition, Mrs André-Léonard wanted to see the free distribution of condoms, better health care and social services and support for information and training programmes for local health workers. Commissioner Papoutsis expressed agreement with: Amendment No 1, which sought to extend the programme to include other sexually transmitted diseases; Amendment No 11 (part 1); No 18, which called for mechanisms to provide aid to the poorest sectors of the community; Nos 6 and 25, which related to financial resources; and No 26. He also said that Amendments Nos 4, 7, 9, 11 (part II), 13, 16, 17 and 19 were unnecessary, since they had been incorporated into the text of the common position. He went on to say that Amendments Nos 5, 12, 14, 15, 20 (part II), 21 and 27 would be acceptable if they were re-worded. On the other hand, he rejected Amendments Nos 3, 8, 10, 20 (part I), 22, 23, 24, 28 (part II) and 29.
Recalling that some 17 million people were currently infected with the HIV virus and that even the most optimistic forecasts suggested that this figure would grow to 40 million by the year 2000, the rapporteur, Mrs ANDRE-LEONARD, pointed out that the developing countries had been the hardest hit, since 80% of those infected lived in these regions. While regretting that insufficient resources had been made available for the aid programmes being financed by Europe (which remained nevertheless the main provider of funds for development aid), Mrs André-Léonard stressed the importance of preventive measures, which should be directed primarily at the poorest classes and at the at-risk groups, and the need for remedying the absence of education, which was a prime cause of this scourge on society. Finally, she wanted to combine the fight against AIDS with measures to prevent sexually transmitted diseases. Commissioner Pinheiro gave his assurance that there would be the necessary degree of coordination between the EU and the Member States in respect of an anti-AIDS strategy. He then went on to state that the Commission was prepared to take over most of the 39 amendments tabled; however, for reasons of cost or excess bureaucracy he was unable to accept Amendments Nos 18, 28 (para. 2), 29, 30, 32, 35, 38 and 39.
