  • SNCB: tous les secteurs ont augmenté leurs recettes
    A dix jours de l’assemblée générale des actionnaires du 27 avril prochain, la SNCB a publié les grandes lignes de ses résultats financiers, qui confirment des informations publiées antérieurement, à savoir que l’exercice 2000 se termine sur un bénéfice de 236 mio. de BEF (5,85 mio. d’EUR). Une forte baisse par rapport aux 3.550 mio. de 1999 (88 mio. d’EUR), principalement à cause de la diminution de valeur des actions GTS.
  • La Poste belge note une perte nette de 277 mio. d’EUR en raison des provisions du plan social
    “Nous avons adopté une politique très conservatrice dans les finances compte tenu de tous les scénari possibles élaborés pendant le dernier exercice et celui en cours. 2000 et 2001 sont dès lors des années charnières nécessaires pour changer de cap et jeter les bases d’une nouvelle entreprise”, a déclaré le CEO, Frans Rombouts, en commentant les résultats financiers de La Poste. L’entreprise publique a réalisé un chiffre d’affaires de 1,7 mia. d’EUR et une perte nette de 277 mio. d’EUR. Cette dernière est due aux provisions pour le plan social, devant ensemble avec le plan stratégique garantir l’avenir de La Poste.
  • USA: Bush sabre dans les budgets maritimes
    La tension monte dans les milieux maritimes américains, suite à la publication du budget de l’administration Bush pour l’exercice 2002, budget conditionné par une politique de réduction des coûts, ce dont le secteur maritime fait les frais. Dans ce programme budgétaire figurent notamment l’élimination du financement du Fonds XI pour la construction navale qui intervient en tant que garantie pour des prêts. Il s’avère que la Maritime Administration (MarAd) est ramenée à une portion congrue, tandis que l’organisation Army Corps of Engineers, qui a charge des dragages et du maintien des chenaux d’accès maritimes fédéraux, voit ses moyens financiers considérablement réduits.
  • Patrick Dewael: “Les normes de bruit des avions doivent être les mêmes pour les trois Régions”

Deux points retiendront l’attention: il souhaite que les normes sonores soient les mêmes pour les trois Régions du pays. De manière à éviter ce qu’il appelle l’exportation des nuisances sonores. Enfin, il n’y a plus de place en Flandre pour un nouvel aéroport.
