Foreword

The year 2004 was marked by the negotiations on the proposal for a new directive on the recognition of professional qualifications ; this new directive is likely to be adopted definitively in 2005. More specifically, after the Council adopted the Common Position on 21 December 2004, the second reading of the proposal for a directive commenced as of January. This directive should facilitate in particular the temporary and occasional provision of services in another Member State. Furthermore, it should confer an enhanced role on professional organisations and associations through common platforms.

During the first reading of the proposal for a directive, the European Parliament and the Council shared the Commission’s concern to facilitate the provision of cross-border services, while exerting greater supervision thereof. Thus, for the property professions, the host Member State may, by virtue of the Common Position, require from the service provider who travels on its territory to make a prior declaration to the competent national authority. A pro forma or automatic registration with a competent professional organisation may also be required, without however entailing an additional charge for the migrant professional. Although the Commission would have preferred a more flexible system for the provision of services, it was able to come round to the Common Position, which already represents a step forward, while hoping for further developments once progress has been made on administrative cooperation, in particular as regards the exchange of information between Member States on errors committed by professionals in exercising their profession.

CEPI

The European Parliament and the Council also accepted the principle of a more automatic recognition of professional qualifications on the basis of common platforms. This provision confers an important role on professional organisations and associations at both the national and European level. They will actually be able to submit to the European Commission common platforms which, based on a comparative examination of the level and content of training courses imported in the different Member States, will establish a set of professional qualification criteria (e.g. initial academic training, work experience, practical training, continuing training, etc.) capable of making up for the substantial differences identified between a sufficient number among them for the profession considered. Once the platform has been adopted as a decision of the Commission, the Member States will no longer be able to claim compensation schemes, i.e. an aptitude test or adaptation training on the part of a professional who meets the conditions thus defined. Nevertheless, the object of the platforms can under no circumstances be to force the Member States to regulate a profession, nor to harmonise the training conditions for accessing or exercising said profession.

Obviously, the final contents of the provisions of the directive on the recognition of professional qualifications, and in particular the conditions that will apply to common platforms, will be known only upon the completion of the legislative procedure. I know that, with all the caution thereby required, the European Real Estate Council has already undertaken works to present a common platform, and I should like to wish you luck and success on your endeavour. The Commission can only encourage such initiatives which, in full compliance of the regulatory competencies of the Member States, facilitate the free movement of professionals, both for the latter and for the authorities in charge of evaluating their qualifications.

Status Report

1998 - 2004 : a very positive balance

Within the framework of this Report, we are used to summarizing CEPI achievements, and its constituent parts CEAB and EPAG, during the past year.Just the once will not hurt and we have decided this year to take stock of our objectives achieved during the last seven years.This will allow everybody to realize what we have done since 1998.

In 1998, CEPI had 20 Member Associations in 13 countries. In 2004, CEPI has 37 Member Associations in 22 countries.

In seven years (1998 to 2004), CEPI has achieved the following :

This is briefly what CEPI has accomplished during these last years.

As my predecessor Gerhard Steller has already said in 2003, to carry out this increasing volume of work we are dependant on the input of all our member associations and particularly the members of the Working Parties, the Boards of Directors and the General Assemblies.I would like to thank them for their compe-tence, their seriousness and the time they spend for CEPI. Thanks to them, CEPI has become today the biggest real estate professional organisation in the European Union.

2005 Priorities

According to what has been written before, it is obvious that many objectives have already been achieved, but there is still a lot to be done however, as soon as the European Union makes progress. As far as 2005 is concerned, the General Assembly held in Madrid on November 19, approved the priorities for 2005. Here are these priorities in short.

1. Education• Transeuropa 1 : updating Belgian, French, English and Welsh legislation• Transeuropa 2 : updating Danish, Austrian, Irish and Dutch legislation• Transeuropa 3 : introducing Finnish, Swedish, Italian, Spanish and German legislation• Transeuropa 4 : launching the Programme for the new EU Member States• Eureduc : advertising campaign for CEPI Eur label contacts with new educational establishments• Euro Education : launching the students exchange programme (maximum 10 students)

2. Lobbying, public relations and expansion• Organising an international study day in Bruges on December 2• Legal protection of CEPI acronym• Creation of a CEPI label and advertising campaign• Organisation of meetings of the Member Associations with their Members of the European Parliament• Meeting at the European Commission with Pamela Brumter-Coret, in charge of regulated professions• Meeting at the European Commission with Margot Froehlinger, in charge of services• Contacts with the new EU Member States• Development of the profession of property manager in the Eastern European countries

3. Information• 2005 edition of the Annual Report• 5 issues on the CEPI Info on the website and e-mailing of a short version to the associations for a large distribution among their own members• Questionnaires (fees, % apartments - houses, regulated professions)• Leaflet on minimum educational requirements and Eureduc programme

4. European Legislation and Regulations• Follow up of the draft Directive on the recognition of professional qualifications• Follow up of the proposal for a Directive on Services in the Internal Market

5. European Code of Ethics and European Chamber of Mediation, Arbitration and Discipline• Drawing up of the final texts• Presentation of the draft to the European Commission

6. Computer website• Updating the website twice a year• Transeuropa 2 : see Education hereabove

These are the most important priorities for CEPI in 2005. We will achieve them according to an accurate schedule, with the efficient help, the concrete collaboration and the European spirit of all the Member Associations. We will also achieve them within the framework of a new, more flexible, more efficient structure, fitted to the important organisation we have become.That is the price you have to pay for progress.

CEPI opinion on the proposal for a European Directive on Services in the Internal Market

Introduction

The European Council of Real Estate Professions basically welcomes the initiative of the European Commission to complete the process of making the European Market for Services a reality.

This is particularly important because the service sector constitutes an important part of the European Economy, representing currently two third of the economic activity in the euro zone and because, according to the European Economic and Social Committee, the sector has recently slowed down.

It is thus necessary or even highly essential to improve the functioning of the European Market for Services as the European Commission aims ”to transform the EU into the most competitive and dynamic knowledge-based economy in the world by 2010”.

The proposal of the European Commission comes thus perfectly at the right time.

We also must admit that the service sector is highly diversified. It includes many different professions and a huge variety of services. It goes from medical and para-medical professions to contractors, architects, insurance companies, craftsmen, accountants, notaries, barristers, estate agents, property managers, and many others.

CEPI

It is vital for the development of cross-border provision of services, for the providers of services themselves and for the consumers concerned, to remove as much as possible the various existing barriers.It is also undoubted that most of the professions concerned are submitted to their own national legislation and their own internal regulations based on their own national habits and customs and some of these legislations and regulations are stricter in some Members States than in others.As far as estate agents and property managers are concerned, certain Member States legally protect the title, regulate the access to these professions and the exercising of these two professions. Some others only control the profession's access and practice. Others only regulate access and not the practice or vice-versa. Last but not least, some Members States control nothing and even ”deregulate” these two professions.

Considering what has been said, CEPI welcomes the overall objectives of the draft Directive but considers that some issues need clarification and adaptation and some more accuracy for certain points.

Yes

CEPI supports the European Commission’s insistent proposal for representative European professional organisations to introduce a Code of Ethics, a Chamber of Arbitration and Discipline and common educational requirements.

Charter on Quality Care

CEPI has drawn up a charter on quality care for estate agents and property managers. This document has been unanimously approved by all the Member Associations concerned. This Charter gives the outlines of quality care for the professionals concerned.Each Member Association has committed itself to implement the terms of the Charter for all its affiliated members.

Code of Ethics

CEPI is adapting its current Code of Ethics for estate agents and property managers. The same is planned for the European Chamber of Mediation, Arbitration and Discipline.

@-commerce

CEPI has also finalized a text on a code of ethics for @-commerce. This text has already been unanimously approved by all the Member Associations and sent to the European Commission.

Common educational requirements

All CEPI Member Associations have also approved the list of the minimum educational requirements for estate agents and for property managers.

CEPI opinion on the proposal for a European Directive on Services in the Internal Market

In addition, CEPI has launched its Eureduc programme. The objective of the Eureduc programme is to set up a European common basic programme for property agents and/or managers in the most important universities, business schools and vocational schools in the EU Member States.This syllabus corresponds to CEPI minimum educational requirements.CEPI grants CEPI Eur label to the educational establishments whose syllabus are considered by CEPI as in perfect conformity with our minimum educational requirements. Up to now, 53 educational establishments from 15 countries have already signed the CEPI Mission Statement and 42 of them have just received the CEPI Eur label.It is obvious that in a very near future, many other educational establishments will follow their equivalents.These minimum requirements should normally be introduced as the common platform for all European estate agents and property managers within the framework of art. 15 of the draft Directive on the recognition of professional qualifications.

CEPI has widely anticipated the requirements of the proposed Directive and is ready to present its proposals to the European Commission :• Charter on Quality Care for estate agents• Charter on Quality Care for property managers• Code of Ethics on Community level • Chamber of Arbitration, Mediation and Discipline • Code of Ethics for @-commerce• Minimum common educational requirements.

Yes, but

Professional indemnity insurance and financial guarantee

CEPI welcomes the idea of making professional indemnity insurance compulsory for all service providers.

But as far as the estate agents and the property managers are concerned, a recent CEPI study among its Member Associations has very clearly shown that this insurance has not always the same level, does not cover the same risks and has sometimes different terms and conditions from one Member State to another.It should thus be useful to provide for a certain harmonization in this field so that every consumer could have the same minimum cover.

As to the property managers, they often have in their possession important amounts deposited on their accounts by the co-owners or coming from the co-ownership itself (reserve assets, liquid assets, etc.).Within the framework of the consumer protection, it should be useful that the Directive extends its requirements and provides for a financial guarantee or insurance for all service providers who have in their possession deposited funds from a third party. This guarantee should have minimum requirements, as for the indemnity insurance.

CEPI has studied this problem for a long time and has drawn up a list of minimum requirements for indemnity insurance and/or for financial guarantee. CEPI document could easily serve as a basis for the Commission’s requirements in this regard, since this document has already been unanimously approved by all CEPI Member Associations.

Single points of contact

CEPI welcomes the Commission’s will to simplify the regis-tration procedure for all service providers in a host country.

CEPI insists on the fact however that, in certain Member States, this registration procedure includes various legal obligations to public registration authorities (e.g. to the trade registers) or other public organisations which require the authenticated signature or even the presence of the service provider himself.CEPI considers however that important problems could arise in this regard, since the single point of contact will only send the needed documents to the registration authorities and will not be able to deal with the official and legal formalities proper. This means that, in certain Member States, the registration process may in this way compromise the swiftness and the simplification aimed by the Directive.

To find a remedy for these problems, CEPI considers that it should be useful to clarify this irrefutable fact and to redefine exactly the assignments and the liability of the single points of contact

Country-of-origin principle

Most of CEPI Member Associations consider the implementation of this principle as very problematic as it will produce flagrant distortions as regards competition, given the important legal and statutory differences in force in the various Member States.

We indeed already said it in the introduction, as far as estate agents and property managers are concerned, certain Member States legally protect the title, regulate the access to these professions and the exercising of these two professions. Some others only control the profession’s access and practice. Others only regulate access and not the practice or vice-versa. Last but not least, some Members States control nothing and even “deregulate” these two professions.

The country-of-origin principle would thus facilitate the service provider coming from a Member State where legislation is weak and who moves to another member State with stricter regulations, and the contrary vice-versa.

This principle could only be efficient if there is an important harmonization as regards the requirements in the field of exercising the profession, in order to have basic common requirements for all estate agents and property managers. CEPI lays stress on accompanying as soon as possible the country-of-origin principle with a common code of ethics, a charter on quality care, a common study level, common educational requirements, harmonized access

CEPI

to the profession, definitions of the professions concerned and others.

Without this preliminary harmonization, CEPI considers that the country-of-origin principle will be inefficient because it is inapplicable, but also totally discriminatory for the Member States which have made an effort to protect the consumer by a strict legislation and restricting regulations.

A few accurate comments

Here are a few accurate detailed but important remarks, made by certain of our Member Associations :1. In comment nr16 of the proposed Directive, it should

be useful to mention that the real estate sector also includes the property managers (only the estate agents are currently mentioned).

2. Art. 39 of the proposed Directive concerns the drawing up of European Code of Ethics. It should be useful to mention at point 1,c / the property managers (only the activities of the estate agents are currently mentioned).

3. The text of the above point 2 is also rather nebulous as far as the restricting force of the code of Ethics is concerned. Is it only a simple statement of principle (a sort of gentlemen’s agreement) or will the Member States and/or the Commission be able to enforce these Code of Ethics for all the service providers concerned?

This point should be clarified.
