PAR JUMTA LĪGUMU STARPVALSTU NAFTAS UN GĀZES TRANSPORTA SISTĒMU DIBINĀŠANAS ORGANIZACIONĀLAI STRUKTŪRAI
ANOTĀCIJA
1. Kādēļ likums ir vajadzīgs? (Atbildot uz jautājumu, jāizskaidro: a) pašreizējā situācija - jāpamato, kādēļ neapmierina spēkā esošais tiesiskais regulējums; b) likumprojekta koncepcija - jāpaskaidro, kāpēc likums ir nepieciešams.) |
Likums Par Jumta līgumu starpvalstu naftas un gāzes transporta sistēmu dibināšanas organizacionālai struktūrai nepieciešams, lai izpildītu 1994.gada 13.janvāra likuma Par Latvijas Republikas starptautiskajiem līgumiem prasības attiecībā uz starptautisko līgumu spēkā stāšanos. Ar likumu Latvija pievienojas 1999.gada 22.jūlijā Kijevā parakstītajam Jumta līgumam starpvalstu naftas un gāzes transporta sistēmu dibināšanas organizacionālai struktūrai. Eiropas Savienības INOGATE (Starpvalstu naftas un gāzes transports uz Eiropu) programmas Jumta līgums ir starptautiska vienošanās par naftas un gāzes transportēšanas sistēmu rehabilitāciju, celtniecību un ekspluatāciju pēc vienotiem principiem, noteikumiem un mehānismiem, par pamatu ņemot ES Partnerības un sadarbības līgumus, un Asociācijas (Eiropas) līgumus, kas paredz tiesību aktu un tehnisko standartu harmonizāciju ar ES normām, kā arī saskaņā ar Eiropas Enerģētikas hartā un ANO deklarācijas Kioto protokolā (par vides aizsardzību) ietvertajām normām. Savukārt nacionālajā līmenī, valsts īsteno savu vienīgo un ekskluzīvo jurisdikciju pār tās teritoriju un naftas un gāzes transportēšanas sistēmu, kas šķērso tās teritoriju. ES INOGATE programma ir lielākā reģionālā iniciatīva ES tehniskās palīdzības (Tacis, Phare un Meda) ietvaros ar mērķi nodrošināt energoresursu transportēšanu no Kaspijas jūras baseina, Centrālās Āzijas un Krievijas uz Eiropu, un konkrēti caur Melno jūru, Baltijas jūru, Adrijas jūru, Egejas jūru un Vidusjūru. Uz doto brīdi INOGATE darbojas jau kā aptuveni 50 ieinteresēto pušu sadarbības forums enerģētikas jomā (bez dalībvalstīm, INOGATE programmā kā novērotāji darbojas visas ES dalībvalstis, Melnās jūras reģiona valstis, Centrālās un Austrumeiropas valstis, tai skaitā visas trīs Baltijas valstis, kā arī starptautiskās finansu institūcijas (Pasaules banka, Eiropas Investīciju banka, ERAB un Enerģētikas hartas sekretariāts)). INOGATE darbojas arī kā katalizators starptautisko un privāto investoru piesaistei. Plānota arī īpaša garantijas fonda izveide, kas sniegtu garantijas tiem, kas gatavi ieguldīt enerģētikas tīklu izveidē vai modernizācijā. Eiropas Komisija vairākkārt ir akcentējusi INOGATE programmas nozīmi un nepieciešamību paplašināt tās ģeogrāfisko dimensiju, iekļaujot arī citas ieinteresētās Centrālās un Austrumeiropas valstis, tai skaitā arī Baltijas valstis. Šī gada jūlijā Latvija saņēma Eiropas Komisijas pārstāvja (INOGATE programmas koordinatora EK F.Bensarsa) uzaicinājumu pievienoties INOGATE Jumta līgumam un kļūt par INOGATE programmas pilntiesīgu dalībvalsti. Bez tam, šī gada novembrī Eiropas Komisijas amatpersonas (Ārējo attiecību ģenerāldirektorāta (atbildīgs par INOGATE programmu) direktore K.Deja un par paplašināšanos atbildīgā komisāra G.Ferhoigena padomniece P.Erleri) apliecināja, ka Latvijas pievienošanās šim līgumam neradīs problēmas Latvijas iestāšanās procesā ES. Pirmkārt, dalība ES INOGATE programmā Latvijai dotu iespēju saņemt tiešu ES atbalstu, realizējot ar gāzes un naftas transportēšanu un tranzītu saistītus projektus, kas eventuāli veicinātu starptautisko finansu institūciju un privāto investoru piesaisti. Otrkārt, tiktu nodrošināta arī lielāka Latvijas interešu pārstāvība starpvalstu diskusijās (konferencēs, semināros utt.) par energoresursu transportēšanu, kā arī konkrētu projektu atlases procesā (iekļaušana kopējā INOGATE shēmā, kas vairotu Latvijas piedāvāto vai atbalstīto projektu publicitāti), ar mērķi nodrošināt Latvijas iesaisti starptautiskā naftas un gāzes transportēšanas plūsmā no Kaspijas jūras reģiona uz Ziemeļu un Rietumeiropu. |
2. Kāda var būt likuma iespējamā ietekme uz tautsaimniecības attīstību? (Atbildot uz jautājumu, jāanalizē ietekme uz : a) tautsaimniecības konkurētspēju; b) eksporta attīstību; c) nodarbinātību; d) investīciju pieplūdi; e) uzņēmējdarbību; f) apkārtējo vidi.) |
Likumam būs pozitīva ietekme uz Latvijas tautsaimniecības attīstību un tās konkurētspēja nākotnē varētu pieaugt. Ar likumu apstiprinātā Jumta līguma ietvaros realizētie projekti būs saistīti ar jaunu darbavietu radīšanu, kā arī investīciju pieplūdi. Bez tam projektu realizācijas gaitā tiks nodrošināta vides aizsardzības standartu ievērošana. |
3. Kāda var būt likuma iespējamā ietekme uz valsts budžetu? (Atbildot uz jautājumu, jāpaskaidro, vai ieviešot attiecīgo likumu: a) valsts budžetā prognozējami neparedzēti izdevumi; b) samazināsies vai palielināsies valsts budžeta ienākumus; c) nākamajos piecos gados samazināsies vai palielināsies valsts budžeta ienākumi.) |
Neparedzēti izdevumi no valsts budžeta netiek plānoti un budžeta ieņēmumiem plānota tendence pieaugt, īpaši ilgtermiņa periodā. |
4. Kāda var būt likuma iespējamā ietekme uz spēkā esošo tiesību normu sistēmu un vai ir nepieciešami grozījumi citos normatīvajos aktos? (Atbildot uz jautājumu, jāpaskaidro, kādi normatīvie akti - likumi un Ministru kabineta noteikumi - papildus jāizdod un vai ir sagatavoti to projekti.) |
Likumprojekts minēto jautājumu neskar. |
5. Vai likumprojekts atbilst Latvijas starptautiskajām saistībām ? (Atbildot uz jautājumu, jāpamato: a) atbilstība saistībām pret Eiropas Savienību - no kāda s tarptautisko tiesību akta saistība izriet, kāda ir saistības būtība, kā šis normatīvā akta projekts izpilda šo starptautisko saistību); b) atbilstība Eiropas Kopienu tiesībām attiecīgajā nozarē - jānorāda arī tiesību aktu nr.; c) atbilstība saistībām ar Pasaules tirdzniecības organizāciju; d) atbilstība citām Latvijas starptautiskajām saistībām.) |
Likumprojekts nav pretrunā ar Latvijas noslēgtajiem divpusējiem un daudzpusējiem līgumiem. Latvijas pievienošanās Jumta līgumam neradīs šķēršļus ES normatīvo aktu enerģētikas jomā, tai skaitā Eiropas Savienības Padomes direktīvu 91/296/EEC Par dabasgāzes tranzītu caur tīkliem un 98/30/EC Kopējie noteikumi dabasgāzes iekšējam tirgum, ieviešanai Latvijā. Ar likumprojektu apstiprinātais Jumta līgums paredz efektīvāku divpusējo un daudzpusējo starpvalstu sadarbības instrumentu izmantošanu kopīgai naftas un gāzes transporta infrastruktūras attīstībai reģionā. |
6. Kā tiks nodrošināta likuma izpilde? (Atbildot uz jautājumu, jāpaskaidro: a) kā tiks nodrošināta likuma izpilde no valsts puses - vai tiek radītas jaunas valsts institūcijas, vai paplašinātas esošo institūciju funkcijas; b) kā tiks nodrošināta kontrole no indivīda puses - kā indivīds var aizstāvēt savas tiesības, ja likumprojekts viņu ierobežo.) |
Pamatojoties uz šo likumu, Ārlietu ministrija nosūtīs Jumta līguma depozitārijam pievienošanās instrumentu, lai Jumta līgums varētu stāties spēkā. Jumta līguma saistību izpildi Latvijas Republikā koordinēs Ārlietu ministrija. Likumprojekts indivīda tiesības neierobežos. |
