2025/2809(DEA) Scrutiny of a delegated act First reading

Commission Delegated Regulation supplementing Directive (EU) 2024/1788 of the European Parliament and of the Council by specifying a methodology for assessing greenhouse gas emissions savings from low-carbon fuels

The Commission adopted a technical rule under powers delegated by an EU law. Parliament can object within a deadline; an adopted objection stops the rule.

Where it stands: Parliament rejected the objection on 23 October 2025 — the Commission measure goes ahead.

How a file moves through Parliament

A file is referred to one lead committee (others may give an opinion). Its rapporteur writes a draft report, committee members table amendments, and the committee votes to adopt the report. The report is then tabled for all MEPs; political groups can table further amendments, which are voted on before the final vote in plenary. The adopted resolution is Parliament’s final position; it is not itself law.
