(COM(2025)0084 – C10-0036/2025 – 2025/0040(COD))
Proposal for a regulation
Article 1 – paragraph 1 – point 24 – indent 1
| Text proposed by the Commission | Amendment |
| – In Annex V, section B, the following point is added after point (15): "investments intended to finance, extend, or support social housing programs, which fall within national or local competence and do not directly contribute to the competitiveness, productivity, or economic security of the Union" |
Or. en
Justification
The Invest EU Fund currently finances social housing; this sector should be excluded from the scope of the program in view of the need to focus on the Union's industrial competitiveness.

Justification
Currently, “the decommissioning, operation, adaptation, or construction of nuclear power plants” is excluded from the Invest EU Fund in its Annex V. It is essential to add this technology in order to send a strong signal about our European priorities. This annex, which excludes nuclear power from the scope of investment, must be amended.
