Objection under Rule 115(2) and (3) · implementing measure

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.

Objection under Rule 114(3) · delegated act

InvestEU Fund strategic investments in the field of defence

✦ AI The Commission delegated regulation of 28 August 2025 broadens the definition of eligible strategic investments under the InvestEU Fund to include more defence technologies and products for military use, and extends eligibility to entities in associated countries or controlled by non-associated countries under certain conditions. Parliament rejected the objection, so the Commission measure goes ahead and the expanded defence investment rules will apply. Parliament had asked the Commission to refrain from using delegated acts to change InvestEU's scope and to submit any further changes as a legislative proposal under the ordinary legislative procedure.
