Details

The presidency noted that none of the delegations had any basic problems with the content of the draft resolution being proposed by the Council and the representatives of the governments of the Member States, meeting in Council session, as submitted by the Permanent Representatives Committee. However the UK delegation was unable to consent because of its general position (linked to the BSE problem) as regards decisions to be taken by unanimous agreement. The presidency hoped that the text might be adopted as soon as possible as an ‘A’ item and looked forward to the Florence European Council formally declaring the European Year against Racism.

Details

Ministers discussed a draft joint action concerning measures to combat racism and xenophobia in the field of judicial cooperation. This is one of a series of measures proposed by the Spanish Presidency in response to the conclusions of the Cannes European Council and the report by the Consultative Commission on Racism and Xenophobia set up by the Corfu European Council in June 1994 and chaired by Mr Kahn. The text contains an obligation to take action, i.e. an undertaking by each Member State to ensure effective judicial cooperation in respect of offences based on certain types of behaviour, such as the public dissemination and distribution of tracts, pictures or other material containing expressions of racism or xenophobia and participation in the activities of groups, organisations or associations, which involve discrimination, violence, or racial, ethnic or religious hatred. Under the draft joint action, Member States would undertake to refer the provisions necessary for implementation of this joint action for adoption by their competent national authorities, and the Council would ensure that Member States had fulfilled that undertaking by the end of June 1997. After detailed discussion, particularly of the form the legal instrument should take, the Presidency noted that fourteen delegations could agree to the substance of the text of the joint action and that the United Kingdom delegation, which would prefer a resolution, could not agree to it. In these circumstances and given the seriousness of the phenomenon of racism and xenophobia in the European Union, the Presidency said that the matter would be referred to the General Affairs Council on 4 December 1995 and to the Madrid European Council.

Details

The Council heard a statement by Mr Jean KAHN, President of the Consultative Commission on Racism and Xenophobia, on the progress of the proceedings of that Commission and in particular its proposal for the establishment of a European Monitoring Centre on Racism and Xenophobia. The Council asked the Consultative Commission to conclude its proceedings within the scheduled period so that the European Council in Cannes could define an overall strategy on this question. At the initiative of the Austrian delegation and as part of the campaign to combat racism and xenophobia, the Council agreed to look at the issue of the protection of national minorities. It instructed the Political Committee to present a report on this issue at its next meeting.

The Council asked the Consultative Commission to conclude its proceedings within the scheduled period so that the European Council in Cannes could define an overall strategy on this question. At the initiative of the Austrian delegation and as part of the campaign to combat racism and xenophobia, the Council agreed to look at the issue of the protection of national minorities. It instructed the Political Committee to present a report on this issue at its next meeting.

This is one of a series of measures proposed by the Spanish Presidency in response to the conclusions of the Cannes European Council and the report by the Consultative Commission on Racism and Xenophobia set up by the Corfu European Council in June 1994 and chaired by Mr Kahn. The text contains an obligation to take action, i.e. an undertaking by each Member State to ensure effective judicial cooperation in respect of offences based on certain types of behaviour, such as the public dissemination and distribution of tracts, pictures or other material containing expressions of racism or xenophobia and participation in the activities of groups, organisations or associations, which involve discrimination, violence, or racial, ethnic or religious hatred. Under the draft joint action, Member States would undertake to refer the provisions necessary for implementation of this joint action for adoption by their competent national authorities, and the Council would ensure that Member States had fulfilled that undertaking by the end of June 1997. After detailed discussion, particularly of the form the legal instrument should take, the Presidency noted that fourteen delegations could agree to the substance of the text of the joint action and that the United Kingdom delegation, which would prefer a resolution, could not agree to it. In these circumstances and given the seriousness of the phenomenon of racism and xenophobia in the European Union, the Presidency said that the matter would be referred to the General Affairs Council on 4 December 1995 and to the Madrid European Council.

However the UK delegation was unable to consent because of its general position (linked to the BSE problem) as regards decisions to be taken by unanimous agreement. The presidency hoped that the text might be adopted as soon as possible as an ‘A’ item and looked forward to the Florence European Council formally declaring the European Year against Racism.
