- Defence readiness and facilitating defence investments and conditions for the defence industry (Omnibus V)
Parliament set out its position on a proposed regulation that amends several existing EU laws on chemicals so as to remove regulatory and administrative burdens for defence readiness and speed up approval and authorisation procedures for the defence industry. Parliament adopted its position at first reading, which means MEPs have agreed where Parliament stands on the proposal; it usually needs to agree with the Council before a law is final. Parliament calls on the Commission to refer the matter to Parliament again if it replaces, substantially amends or intends to substantially amend its proposal, and instructs its President to forward its position to the Council, the Commission and the national parliaments.

Objection under Rule 114(3) · delegated act
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 objectivesThe 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.
