- Generalised scheme of tariff preferences
Parliament adopted its position on a proposed EU regulation that would renew the Generalised Scheme of Preferences (GSP) for developing countries from 2024 to 2033. The scheme grants reduced or zero customs duties on imports from low and lower-middle income countries, with special arrangements for vulnerable countries and least developed countries. Parliament's position includes amendments to strengthen monitoring of compliance with international conventions and to enhance the role of civil society. The position will now be forwarded to the Council for negotiation before the law can be finalised.

Parliament adopted a resolution on the importance of consent-based rape legislation in the EU, calling for legal definitions of rape to centre on the absence of consent.
