L 217: Forslag til lov om ændring af lov om integrationsgrunduddannelse (IGU) og lov om Arbejdsgivernes Uddannelsesbidrag. (Videreførelse af IGU-ordningen og EGU-bonusordningen).

(Fremsættelse 28.03.2019). 1) Til justitsministeren af: Claus Kvist Hansen Synes ministeren, at kontrol af køre-hvile-tids-reglerne i Padborg foregår på et tilfredsstillende niveau? (Spm. nr. S 719). 2) Til finansministeren af: Kenneth Kristensen Berth Agter regeringen at udnytte den mulighed, der blev etableret ved Euro Summit i december 2018 om at holde eurozonebudgettet åbent for deltagelse af ERM II-lande, det vil sige Danmark, og dermed lade Danmark indgå i eurozonebudgettet? (Spm. nr. S 704). 3) Til finansministeren af: Kenneth Kristensen Berth Har regeringen selv efterspurgt muligheden for, at ERM II-lande kan indgå i eurozonebudgettet, og i givet fald, hvad er begrundelsen for, at regeringen måtte have efterspurgt denne mulighed? (Spm. nr. S 705). 4) Til finansministeren af: Benny Engelbrecht Sundhedsøkonom Kjeld Møller Pedersen har i Politiken den 27. marts kaldt økonomien i regeringens sundhedsreform for »en blanding af antagelser om delvist tvivlsomme administrative besparelser og genbrug af gamle penge« – kan ministeren på den baggrund bekræfte, at finansieringen af regeringens aftale om en sundhedsreform er finansieret af ikkekonkrete besparelser og allerede afsatte midler? (Spm. nr. S 727). 5) Til børne- og socialministeren af: Jakob Sølvhøj Skal der efter ministerens opfattelse være normeringer i daginstitutionerne, der giver det pædagogiske personale tid til at give alle børn omsorg, og som sikrer, at der altid er mindst to medarbejdere til stede på den enkelte stue, eller mener ministeren, at det er forsvarligt, at en enkelt medarbejder er alene på stuen med en stor gruppe børn? (Spm. nr. S 732. Medspørger: Pernille Skipper (EL)). 6) Til beskæftigelsesministeren af: Finn Sørensen Er ministeren tilfreds med, at der ikke er udbetalt så meget som en krone til udenlandske arbejdere fra Arbejdsmarkedets Udstationeringsfond, og hvad vil ministeren gøre i den anledning? (Spm. nr. S 714, skr. begr.). 7) Til sundhedsministeren af: Erik Christensen Vil ministeren garantere, at Nyborg Sygehus, Svendborg Sygehus og Sygehusenheden på Ærø ikke vil blive lukket som følge af sundhedsreformen, ligesom statsministeren har garanteret det for landets 21 akutsygehuse? (Spm. nr. S 706 (omtrykt)). 8) Til sundhedsministeren af: Peter Hummelgaard Thomsen Er ministeren enig i, at det med sundhedsaftalen fra den 26. marts 2019 fremover vil være op til bestyrelsen i Sundhedsvæsen Danmark at træffe beslutning om, hvorvidt hele eller dele af Amager Hospital skal nedlægges? (Spm. nr. S 723). 9) Til sundhedsministeren af: Peter Hummelgaard Thomsen Er ministeren enig i, at Hospitalsplan 2025, som er udarbejdet af Region Hovedstaden og netop har været i høring, skal gennemføres, uanset om regionerne nedlægges eller ej? (Spm. nr. S 724). 10) Til transport-, bygnings- og boligministeren af: Jan Erik Messmann Mener ministeren, at det kan være forsvarligt ikke at advare flytrafikken i Københavns Lufthavn, når man med meget stor sikkerhed ved, præcis hvor fugleflokkene befinder sig, da det tydeligt fremgår af den i 2018 købte og installerede fugleradar? (Spm. nr. S 726, skr. begr.). 11) Til transport-, bygnings- og boligministeren af: Rasmus Prehn Vurderer ministeren, at alle kommuner fremover vil have en lige stor indflydelse på den kollektive trafik, hvis regionerne nedlægges og det fremover kun bliver syv kommuner i hvert trafikselskab, der tager beslutningerne om bus- og banedriften over kommunegrænser? (Spm. nr. S 729). 12) Til uddannelses- og forskningsministeren af: Rasmus Prehn Når ministeren til et arrangement på Aalborg Universitet sagde, at »I gør det fantastisk Aalborg. Undskyld, at I bliver ramt, det var ikke tilsigtet. Men I skal nok klare det, det er jeg sikker på.« om de store nedskæringer på universitetet, mener ministeren så, at regeringen vil fjerne det omprioriteringsbidrag, der var medvirkende til nedskæringerne? (Spm. nr. S 730, skr. begr.).
Welcome to Furious Friday where we look at misconceptions in the media about the economy There is a lot of talk about fears that the European Union (EU) will fall apart – That this will cause a financial crisis Will it? A lot of people are saying that the financial markets will collapse if the EU were to break apart I wanted to break a few things down What is the EU and what does it do? Why are the member nations considering leaving? What will be the effect on financial markets and the global economy? What is the EU? The EU is a geo-political entity covering a large portion of the European continent. It is founded upon numerous treaties and has changed quite a bit over the years In 1957, six core states founded the EU's predecessor, the European Economic Community (EEC) (Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and West Germany). Trying to create a common market – European Coal and Steel Community 1999 – Monetary union was established – 2002 was in full effect 19 members at the time Today – 28 members - undergone expansions that have taken it from 6 member states to 28, a majority of the states in Europe are a part of the EU. What is the EU’s role? 7 EU bodies - EU parliament & Council, EU Commission, and European Central Bank (ECB), etc. Set laws and rules on almost everything for member states ECB - They do things like sent lending rates for banks, and combat any inflation problems that may arise Has its benefits Tax free trading among members – Tariff free for goods sold between countries Mobility of labour – Members can travel and live in any of the member states This is why many of the nations are wanting to leave – Come back to this Common currency – Makes doing business, traveling or moving easy for all members Motto: United in diversity – Everyone getting along NEW: They want to form their own army though – Worried a lot of people Can be used to keep other nations in line – German soldiers could go to Hungry to put down riots If the EU is so good, why are people looking to leave? Effects – Practicality it has downsides for the good – 3 big ones Removes monetary policy for countries – Puts it in the hands of the European Central Bank The central bank for the euro and administers monetary policy of the Euro area, which consists of 19 EU member states ECB’s role - maintain price stability within the Eurozone are to set and implement the monetary policy for the Eurozone – Inflation targets conduct foreign exchange operations, to take care of the foreign reserves of the European System of Central Banks operation of the financial market infrastructure under the TARGET2 payments system Jointly owned by the member National Central Banks (NCB) The capital of the ECB comes from NCBs – Requirement to issue capital is based around the size of a country’s economy in GDP €10,825,007,069.61 currently Currency – Being on the same currency might not be the best thing for some nations Works well for Germany – Can export a lot and not experience currency appreciation pressures – Makes them more competitive Estimated that the Euro is undervalued at 20% compared what a local German currency should be - adding to their trade surplus Other countries in the EU might not able to sell goods at a profit on the Euro if their economy is struggling Printing money - the exclusive right to authorise the issuance of Euro banknotes. Member states can issue Euro coins, but the amount must be authorised by the ECB beforehand Takes power from Member Governments – One stop shop on policy There are 751 members of parliament in the EU parliament – That is a lot of politicians – We have 150 in the house of reps in Australia Aus – 1 per 100k, EU – 1 per 700k people Hard to get representation and is very bloated What do they decide on? Immigration policies and quotas – This is the big issue for most member states Mobility of migration around the EU Dublin Regulation The first member state where asylum claim is lodged is responsible for a person's asylum claim – Hasn’t been enforced well Countries in the EU have been given quotas to fill – This is one of the biggest objections Giant body choosing – Not the population Similar to the UN’s Global Compact for Migration Lots of EU nations feel they are losing their culture and national identity Your first reaction might be to think that they are backward racists, I’ll share some stats with you next Friday that will probably shock as to the state of things e. Natives are now the minority in many cities, like in Frankfurt and London Plus – Only 1 in 5 is from a ‘war zone’ – goes against what you hear in the media Regulation control – Single market regulation Goods and services – The EU gets to dictate regulations on food, manufacturing, services, etc. Makes some countries less competitive Environmental – Quotas and caps on trade Example – Common fisheries policy (CFP) – 77% of the UK fleet given rights to 3% Other 97% goes to just 6 companies One Dutch-owned super trawler has the right to catch 94% Worse in Scotland – Lead to many small coastal towns having high unemployment Aims to serve the interest of the EU, not a country The policies, decisions, and rules set in place by the European Union are not there to protect the best interest of each individual country. their goal is to advance the EU as a whole. This has caused many damages in smaller countries, that are often left unheard Officials from the EU make policy decisions that go against the peoples’ wishes Greece – See mass protests? Debt is forgiven if Greece does what the EU wants Will spend a whole ep running through how being part of the EU helped them into their debt crisis Countries have to pay in and don’t decide on what the funds are used for – UK net contributed of $200 bn since joining – another reason why they are leaving The Problem - Central planning – Nations need different economic factors to remain competitive It is very complex and slow – doesn’t allow for free market or free choice by nations Power without accountability The European Council choose the presidents and commissioners of the EU – Not the public of the EU (almost like voting on the pope) 5 presidents currently – EU Commission, Euro Summit, Eurogroup, ECB, Parliament Taking away voting rights from Poland and Hungry due to not towing the line Leaving is hard – But the UK is the canary down the coal mine June 2016 - UK will be a test subject – Hasn’t had a great process so far UK market - Dropped 200 points to 6100 after the announcement – Bounced back to 6800 2 months later 24th June 2016 – 6138 – Today 7004 – Up around 14% since Brexit If they get their own army leaving may become harder That is a summary of the current state of the EU Next time we will explore: Who is looking to leave? And Why? What it will cause - More bark than bite, or will it collapse the world? If you liked the episode let us know on the contact page

On 17 July 2015, the European Commission proposed, as an exceptional measure, to amend the common rules governing the implementation of the five European Structural and Investment Funds, to provide immediate liquidity to Greece and help the country make full use of available EU funding to finance investment and economic activity. This follows the decisions taken at the Euro Summit of 12 July 2015, which paved the way for a new support programme for Greece.Source : © European Union - EP
