  4. Brexit Adjustment Reserve

    Parliament adopted its position on a proposal to adjust the amounts allocated to member states under the Brexit Adjustment Reserve, a fund set up in 2021 to help them cope with the effects of the UK's withdrawal from the EU. The adjustment is a technical, financial and legal change that aligns the fund's regulation with a reduction agreed during the mid-term revision of the EU's long-term budget, without affecting funds already paid out or transferred. Once the amended regulation is adopted, the Commission can update the implementing decisions that set the final national allocations.

    Parliament adopted a resolution supporting the United Kingdom's accession to the 2019 Judgments Convention on recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments in civil or commercial matters. The resolution welcomes the Commission's positive assessments and backs the accession, which would make the Convention applicable between the EU and the UK from 1 July 2025. Parliament reiterates that the EU's internal procedure under Article 218(6) TFEU must still be followed for establishing the EU position on third-country accessions.
