Discharge 2024: EU general budget – European Council and Council

✦ AI The report concerns the 2024 EU general budget, section II, which covers the European Council and the Council, and it proposes whether to grant discharge for how that money was spent. Parliament decided not to grant discharge to the Secretary-General of the Council for the implementation of the European Council and Council budget for the 2024 financial year. Parliament states that the Council has refused to cooperate in the discharge procedure since 2009, including for 2024, and that this prevents Parliament from making an informed decision based on a thorough scrutiny of the Council's budget implementation. Parliament calls on the Council to resume negotiations with Parliament without delay with a view to drawing up binding working arrangements for the discharge procedure.

Mobilisation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund for Displaced Workers: application EGF/2026/004 FI/Etelä-Suomi and Helsinki-Uusimaa paper – Finland

✦ AI Parliament considered a proposal to use the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund for Displaced Workers (EGF) to help workers dismissed in the paper industry in the Finnish regions of Etelä-Suomi and Helsinki-Uusimaa. Parliament approved the use of the fund, which means a financial contribution of EUR 1 102 560 is made available to support 351 dismissed workers in returning to the labour market. The money covers 60 % of the total costs of the measures, which include job-search training and career coaching, vocational training, help with starting a business, wage subsidies and mobility allowances. Parliament also called on the Finnish authorities to take measures against social inequality and structural barriers and to tailor support to the needs and profiles of the workers concerned, such as age, gender and level of education.

Genetically modified soybean MON 87769

✦ AI Parliament voted on a motion for a resolution on a draft Commission decision to renew the authorisation for placing on the market products containing, consisting of or produced from genetically modified soybean MON 87769. Parliament adopted the resolution, meaning it states its position that the draft decision exceeds the implementing powers provided for in Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 and is not consistent with Union law. Parliament calls on the Commission to withdraw its draft implementing decision and not to renew the authorisation of the GM soybean. It also asks the Commission to require an updated assessment of nutritional and compositional changes, to take account of current risk-assessment methodologies, and to strengthen post-market monitoring.

Certification methodologies for carbon farming activities

✦ AI The text concerns a Commission delegated regulation that sets out certification methodologies for carbon farming activities under Regulation (EU) 2024/3012, the Union certification framework for permanent carbon removals, carbon farming and carbon storage in products. Parliament rejected the text, so the delegated regulation does not receive Parliament's approval. The motion argues that the proposed methodologies exclude direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions over the lifecycle of certified activities, such as indirect land-use change and livestock emissions, and conflict with the mandate in Article 4(2), point (a)(iii), of Regulation (EU) 2024/3012.

✦ AI Parliament considered a draft Commission regulation that would amend the REACH Regulation on chemicals to restrict lead in gunshot. Parliament rejected its objection, so the Commission measure goes ahead. Parliament had opposed adoption of the draft regulation, saying it fails the principle of proportionality and is not compatible with Article 68(1) of the REACH Regulation. It called on the Commission to withdraw the draft and submit a new one after an up-to-date assessment, including of alternatives' availability, costs, weapon compatibility and effects on hunting and sport shooting.

Parliament rejected the text, so it did not oppose adoption of the draft regulation. Parliament considers the draft regulation exceeds the Commission's implementing powers and calls on the Commission to withdraw it or defer adoption until the Court of Justice rules on the pending appeals. It also calls on the Commission to obtain a complete and up-to-date scientific assessment and to explain whether Article 30 of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 applies.

Parliament agreed with the Commission that the conditions of the EGF Regulation are met and that Belgium is entitled to a financial contribution of EUR 3 821 460, which is 85 % of the total cost of EUR 4 495 836. The contribution is to support the reintegration into the labour market of 1 010 targeted beneficiaries, and the Commission is to transfer the amount from the EGF reserve to the EGF budget line. Parliament stressed the importance of shortening the time between an application and the financing decision, and the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs called for the measures to focus on active labour market policy and personalised services.

Parliament adopted the resolution as its official position, objecting to that draft authorisation.

Parliament adopted the draft amending budget, which means the spending changes were approved. Parliament welcomes increased payment appropriations for cohesion programmes and for the Common Agricultural Policy Strategic Plans under the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development, and calls on the Commission to monitor implementation and take measures to avoid running out of payment appropriations. Parliament also expresses concern about the security situation in the Union's eastern border regions and calls on the Commission to assess the consequences and propose budgetary measures, including a subsequent Draft Amending Budget, and to fund European Maritime Security and Defence Hubs.
