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 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.

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

The Commission's delegated regulation simplifies reporting on environmentally sustainable activities and the technical screening criteria for the 'do no significant harm' principle. 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.
