Brussels, 09/03/2001 (Agence Europe) - The conference of presidents of the EP has slightly altered the planned agenda of next week's plenary session (see EUROPE of 9 March, p.14), adding: - Tuesday, the reports by Jackson on environmental inspections and Wijkman on energy efficiency and declarations by Commissioners Reding, Monti and Diamantopoulou on the reform of the football player transfer system; - probably on Wednesday, a declaration by Council President Lindh on Kosovo; - Thursday, in the emergency debates, the problem of access to medicines for those suffering from AIDS in developing countries (requested by the GUE/NGL Group in the context of a trial engaged against the South African government by 39 pharmaceutical multinationals), will be added to the debates on the destruction of cultural heritage in Afghanistan, human rights, trade in light weapons, and the disasters in Mozambique and in Mongolia. The Council has asked the EP to urgently vote (in the course of the week: Ed) on the reform of the common market organisation for beef, proposed by Mr. Fischler, considering that the proposal goes well beyond a modification rendered urgent by the BSE crisis. Voting on the Sturdy Report in Committee is scheduled for 24 April.
