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.

Lead in gunshot

✦ 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.

Certain botanical species containing hydroxyanthracene derivatives

✦ AI The draft Commission regulation would prohibit foods containing preparations from certain Rheum, Cassia senna and Rhamnus species where those preparations contain hydroxyanthracene derivatives, moving them from Part C to Part A of Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 1925/2006. 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.

✦ AI The draft Commission regulation would move monacolins from red yeast rice from Part B to Part A of Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 1925/2006, prohibiting their use in foods, including food supplements. Parliament rejected the text, so it did not oppose adoption of the draft Commission regulation. Parliament had considered that the draft regulation exceeds the implementing powers under Article 8 of that Regulation and fails to respect the principle of proportionality.

Genetically modified soybean GMB151 x DAS-44406-6

✦ AI The text concerns a draft Commission decision to allow products containing, consisting of or produced from genetically modified soybean GMB151 x DAS-44406-6 onto the market under Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003. Parliament adopted the resolution as its official position, objecting to that draft authorisation. Parliament points to scientific uncertainties, gaps in the risk assessment and the lack of a qualified majority among member states, and has repeatedly said the Commission should not authorise such products in those circumstances.

By adopting the text, Parliament made it its official position, stating that the draft decision exceeds the Commission's implementing powers and is not consistent with Union law. Parliament calls on the Commission to withdraw the draft implementing decision and not to authorise the GM soybean, citing insufficient evidence on long-term impacts. It also asks the Commission to submit a legislative proposal to reform the decision-making procedure on genetically modified organisms.

Trajectory to decrease the contribution of high indirect land-use change-risk biofuels, bioliquids and biomass fuels to renewable energy targets

✦ AI The European Parliament voted to block a Commission delegated regulation that would have added soybean to the list of high indirect land-use change-risk feedstocks, phasing out soy-based biodiesel from EU renewable energy targets by 2030. The objection passed, meaning the Commission measure is blocked and cannot enter into force. Parliament does not object to the palm oil phase-down or to fixing the certification procedure, and asks the Commission to revise the act accordingly.

The objection passed, so the Commission measure is blocked and the maize cannot be placed on the market in the EU.

Simplification of the content and presentation of information to be disclosed concerning environmentally sustainable activities and simplification of certain technical screening criteria for determining whether economic activities cause no significant harm to environmental objectives

Parliament rejected the objection, so the Commission measure goes ahead as planned. The regulation narrows the scope of substances of very high concern covered and introduces a materiality threshold for reporting.
