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.

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.

Amending Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1675 to add certain countries to the list of high-risk third countries, and to remove other countries from that list

✦ AI The Commission proposed updating the EU list of high-risk third countries for money laundering and terrorist financing, adding ten countries and removing eight, including Gibraltar. Parliament rejected the objection to this delegated regulation, so the Commission's measure goes ahead as planned. The resolution had asked the Commission to keep Gibraltar on the list and to submit a new act, but that request has no effect now.
