3 amendments...
Amendment 1 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 1. Emphasises the importance of preserving and promoting multilingualism in the institutions, bodies, offices and agencies of the Union and the need to treat all official languages equally; acknowledges the invaluable contribution of the Centre’s translation services to the smooth functioning of the institutions, bodies, offices and agencies of the Union and to making their work transparent and accessible to Union citizens in their respective mother tongues; to this, recommends the services of external providers to be used to a larger extent;
Amendment 2 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 a (new) 1 a. Calls for texts to be translated not only into selected official languages, but into all official languages of the Union, in order to achieve the objective of equal treatment and not to put minority languages at a disadvantage;
Amendment 3 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 a (new) 1 a. Regrets the disproportionate increase in the use of English, which jeopardises the use of all other European languages;

16 amendments...
Amendment 1 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 3 a (new) 3 a. Regrets that some of the founding regulations of the other agencies do not require them all to use the services of the CdT and recalls that the Translation Centre, based on its founding regulations, responds to the language service needs of EU agencies and other EU bodies;
Amendment 10 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 6 a (new) 6 a. Encourages the Centre to pursue the development of a long term Human Resources policy framework which addresses the work-life balance, the lifelong guidance and career development, the gender balance, the teleworking, the geographical balance and the recruitment and integration of people with disabilities;
Amendment 11 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 9 9. Notes with concern that the Centre opted to publish only declarations of interests and not the CVs of its management board due to its size (approximately 130 members and alternate members); draws attention to the fact that other agencies publish the CVs of the members of the management board even if the size is bigger than that of the Centre; calls, therefore, on the Centre to publish the CVs of all the members of the management board and to report to the discharge authority on the measures taken in this regard; notes that the director’s CV and declaration of interests have been published on the Centre’s website;
Amendment 12 #
10. Notes with concern that, although the Centre is not fee-financed, it depends on revenue received from its clients (the Centre has stated that 99,2 % of its income comes from fees paid by its clients), who are represented on the Centre’s management board, and that there is therefore an inherent risk of conflicts of interest regarding the pricing of the Centre’s products; notes that the Centre, as a mitigating measure for the budgetary consequences of such conflicts of interest, maintains a budgetary reserve (‘reserve for the stability of prices’) in order to balance the budget in the event of unforeseen events or reduced demand; notes that this is primarily a reactive measure and encourages the Centre to also develop preventive measures, making sure fair pricing is maintained for all the Centre’s clients;
Amendment 13 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 14 a (new) 14 a. Welcomes the efforts made by the Centre to create an environment-friendly working framework and all the measures taken by the Centre to reduce its carbon footprint, its energy consumption and to develop a paperless workflow;
Amendment 14 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 14 a (new) 14 a. Welcomes the Centre’s efforts to provide a cost-effective and environmentally-friendly workplace and to preferably reduce and offset its CO2 emissions in the areas of premises and travel;
Amendment 15 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 14 b (new) 14 b. Welcomes the efforts made by the Centre to encourage the use of the free public transport system in Luxembourg and the initiatives taken to preserve the biodiversity;
Amendment 16 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 14 a (new) 14 a. Encourages the Agency to pursue the digitalization of its services, as a way to reduce bureaucracy;
Amendment 2 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 3 b (new) 3 b. Wonders about the interest of having a management board composed of 72 people, which complicates decision- making;
Amendment 3 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 5 a (new) 5 a. Welcomes that the Centre agreed in the framework of its two-year Transformation Plan on a cooperation programme with the European Union Intellectual Property Office consisting of 5 IT projects which are not only of strategic importance for both organisations, but will also be of benefit to other EU Agencies;
Amendment 4 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 5 a (new) 5 a. Welcomes the Centre's willingness to develop synergies with other agencies such as the implementation of the e- recruitment tool systal;
Amendment 5 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 5 b (new) 5 b. Highlights that the Centre has extended its client portfolio by signing cooperation agreements with the European High-Performance Computing Joint Undertaking, the European Labour Authority and the Directorate-general for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs;
Amendment 6 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 5 b (new) 5 b. Calls on the agency to continue to develop its synergies, increase cooperation and exchange of good practices with other European agencies with a view to improve efficiency (human resources, building management, IT services and security);
Amendment 7 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 5 c (new) 5 c. Recalls the importance to increase the digitalisation of the CDT in terms of internal operation and management but also in order to speed up the digitalisation of procedures; stresses the need for the CDT to continue to be proactive in this regard in order to avoid a digital gap between the agencies at all costs; draws attention, however, to the need to take all the necessary security measures to avoid any risk to the online security of the information processed;
Amendment 8 #
6 a. Notes with satisfaction that a good gender balance was achieved in 2019 with respect to the management positions (60 % male and 40 % female) and within the management board (53 % male and 47 % female); notes with concern that there is an underrepresentation of men in the Centre’s overall staff (36 % male and 67 %female); asks the Centre to ensure gender balance at the staff level in the future;
Amendment 9 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 6 b (new) 6 b. Notes that the Centre has adopted the policy on protecting the dignity of the person and preventing harassment; notes with appreciation that in 2019, the Centre adopted new Guidelines for Managerial Development, which included a training on harassment prevention in the career path of all the senior and middle managers, Heads of section and potential managers;
