An EU health workforce crisis plan: sustainability of healthcare systems and employment and working conditions in the healthcare sector

The report responds to a health workforce crisis in the Union, where shortages of doctors, nurses, carers and other healthcare professionals are deepening and becoming structural. It sets out measures under six pillars: employment and working conditions, regional inequalities in access to care, recruitment and training, digital transformation, financing and planning, and ethical labour models. Parliament adopted the text as its official position, meaning it states Parliament's stance on how to address the crisis and support sustainable healthcare systems. 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.

The role of social, economic and environmental standards in safeguarding fair competition for all aquatic food products and improving food security

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 text sets out Parliament's position that aquatic food products entering the EU should meet the same or equivalent standards required of EU fishers and producers, to avoid unfair competition and artificially lowered prices. It also calls for stronger customs controls in ports and airports, full use of the eCatch system for traceability, and registration of all imports of fisheries products from non-cooperative countries. Parliament asks for a stamp assuring equivalent conditions to European Quality Schemes for imported products, and for greater autonomy for the outermost regions in the European Maritime, Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund, including re-establishing POSEI – Fisheries.

Termination of the Voluntary Partnership Agreement between the European Union and the Republic of Cameroon on forest law enforcement governance and trade in timber and derived products to the Union.

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.

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.
