Darse à marée: Anvers mobilise ses Etats-généraux pour débloquer la situation Compte tenu de la situation qui s’est développée suite à la décision du Conseil d’Etat d’annuler le deuxième permis de construire de la darse à marée au sud de Doel sur la rive gauche, et des dangers considérables qu’elle comporte tant pour l’économie locale que nationale, l’AGHA lance un appel à tous les partenaires impliqués dans les activités portuaires. Sont ainsi concernés: l’administration portuaire, les syndicats, le patronat secteurs public et privé. Le but est d’organiser dans les plus brefs délais les Etats généraux du port, dont l’objectif sera de discuter ensemble des conséquences catastrophiques de cette affaire et partant, d’avancer des solutions adéquates.
F. Traen (MBZ): “N’adopte-t-on pas aveuglément des procédures européennes?” “La darse à marée qu’Anvers veut réaliser est un “must” pour ce port, car on ne traite plus les grands trafics derrière les écluses. Nous avons voté positivement pour ce projet en Commission portuaire flamande. Les difficultés du moment sont regrettables, et je pense que les législateurs doivent être conscients des intérêts en jeu et de l’impact que la situation actuelle peut avoir. On assiste à des manoeuvres procédurières de retardement qui sont dérangeantes. Certes il faut respecter les procédures légales, mais dans quelle mesure n’adopte-t-on pas aveuglément des procédures, notamment européennes alors qu’en pratique ce n’est pas si évident et pas adapté aux circonstances”. C’est ce qu’a déclaré Fernand Traen président de la MBZ alors qu’il occupait mardi dernier la tribune du Propeller Club d’Anvers.
La CE devrait bientôt se prononcer dans les dossiers Deutsche Post La Commission européenne devrait se prononcer ce mois-ci encore dans deux des trois dossiers relatifs aux postes allemandes. Ce sont ceux relatif à l’abus de position dominante dans le courrier postal en Allemagne. Par contre, elle ne devrait pas se prononcer dans le dossier principal - celui sur l’abus d’aides d’Etat - avant le mois de mai. C’est ce qu’a appris Dow Jones auprès de deux responsables de l’administration du Commissaire européen à la Concurrence.
Le transport de bétail et de viande mis à mal par la crise de la fièvre aphteuse Les exportations d’animaux vivants sensibles à la fièvre aphteuse et les produits dérivés en provenance de la France sont provisoirement interdits. C’est ce qu’a décidé le comité vétérinaire de l’UE après la découverte d’un foyer de la maladie en France. Plusieurs pays européens avaient déjà décrété des limitations au niveau des importations. Comble d’infortune, de plus en plus d’Etats n’appartenant pas à l’UE ferment leurs frontières pour la viande européenne. Une interdiction d’importer de la viande argentine dans l’UE est également en vigueur, ce pays étant lui aussi touché par la maladie.
