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 on a proposed EU law updating the securitisation framework, which lets banks bundle loans to free up capital for lending to households and businesses. The position introduces definitions for public and private securitisations and adjusts due diligence rules, making checks proportionate to risk and easing requirements for repeat transactions. It also allows investors to rely on equivalent information from third-country issuers instead of EU templates, and removes the need to verify compliance for EU-based sellers. Parliament asks the Commission to refer the matter back if it substantially changes its proposal, and forwards its position to the Council and national parliaments.
