The report calls for better implementation of the Professional Qualifications Directive, expanded education and training pathways, and use of ESF+ and cohesion funds to support national plans.

Adopted 433–97–146 · by a large majority - 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.

Parliament adopted its first-reading position on a proposed decision that amends Decision (EU) 2015/1814 on the market stability reserve for the buildings, road transport and additional sectors.

Parliament's position includes amendments to the proposal, and the rapporteur proposes shortening the period for starting distribution of allowances from the reserve from two months to 30 days. Parliament calls on the Commission to refer the matter to it again if the Commission replaces, substantially amends or intends to substantially amend its proposal.

Parliament adopted a resolution backing the termination of the EU-Cameroon Voluntary Partnership Agreement on forest law enforcement, governance and trade in timber. The agreement, in force since 2011, aimed to ensure all Cameroonian timber exports to the EU are legal, but Cameroon has not fully set up the required legality assurance system. Parliament's position supports ending the agreement, as Cameroon has not met its obligations and forest governance has worsened.

- Amending Regulation (EU) 2023/956 as regards simplifying and strengthening the carbon border adjustment mechanism
Parliament adopted its position on a proposal to simplify and strengthen the carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM), which sets a carbon price on certain imports into the EU. The proposal introduces a de minimis exemption for imports below 50 tonnes, relieving around 90% of importers from CBAM obligations while keeping about 99% of embedded emissions covered. It also streamlines the authorisation process for declarants, simplifies emission calculation procedures, and improves the management of CBAM-related financial liabilities. Parliament calls on the Commission to refer the matter back if it substantially amends its proposal, and instructs its President to forward the position to the Council, Commission, and national parliaments.
