The role of social, economic and environmental standards in safeguarding fair competition for all aquatic food products and improving food security

Parliament adopted a resolution on the role of social, economic and environmental standards in safeguarding fair competition for all aquatic food products and improving food security. The text sets out Parliament's position that aquatic food products entering the EU should meet the same or equivalent standards required of EU fishers and producers, to avoid unfair competition and artificially lowered prices. It also calls for stronger customs controls in ports and airports, full use of the eCatch system for traceability, and registration of all imports of fisheries products from non-cooperative countries. Parliament asks for a stamp assuring equivalent conditions to European Quality Schemes for imported products, and for greater autonomy for the outermost regions in the European Maritime, Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund, including re-establishing POSEI – Fisheries.

Market stability reserve for the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS): ceasing the invalidation of allowances

The proposal concerns a decision amending Decision (EU) 2015/1814 so that allowances in the Market Stability Reserve (MSR) of the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) would no longer be invalidated. Parliament adopted its position at first reading on this law, which means MEPs have set out where they stand and will need to agree with the Council before the law is final. The committee report leaves the Commission's proposal unchanged, but its explanatory statement says this is not a substantive position and that a definitive view would be premature before the wider ETS review expected in mid-July 2026. Parliament calls on the Commission to refer the matter to it again if the proposal is replaced or substantially amended, and instructs its President to forward its position to the Council, the Commission and national parliaments.

Genetically modified maize MON 87427

Parliament objected to the Commission's draft decision renewing the authorisation of genetically modified maize MON 87427 for food, feed, and other uses except cultivation. The objection was adopted, so the Commission measure is blocked and the authorisation renewal cannot go ahead. Parliament calls on the Commission to withdraw the draft decision and not to renew the authorisation, citing risks from glyphosate use and insufficient long-term evidence. It also asks the Commission to propose reforming the GMO decision-making procedure to address Parliament's objections and the lack of qualified majority among member states.

Framework for achieving climate neutrality

Parliament adopted its position on a proposed law amending the EU climate law to set a 2040 climate target and strengthen the path to climate neutrality by 2050. The adopted text sets an EU-wide domestic target of at least 90% emission reduction by 2040 relative to 1990 levels, with a limited role for permanent removals. It also calls for support for farmers and rural communities, including funding and measures to address fuel and energy costs. Parliament asks the Commission to refer the matter back if it substantially amends its proposal.

Conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity of areas beyond national jurisdiction

Parliament adopted its position on a proposed EU law to conserve and sustainably use marine biodiversity in ocean areas beyond national jurisdiction. The law would implement an international agreement protecting high seas ecosystems, which cover nearly two thirds of the world's oceans. Parliament's position includes amendments to align the text closely with that agreement, covering environmental assessments and area-based management tools. The Council and Commission will now consider Parliament's position before the law can be finalised.

Objection under Rule 114(3) · delegated act

InvestEU Fund strategic investments in the field of defence

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.
