Revision of the TEN-E Regulation: EU guidelines for new energy infrastructure Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 18-11-2021 Autor WILSON Alex Benjamin Ámbito político Adopción de legislación por el PE y el Consejo | Energía Palabra clave cooperación energética | energía renovable | modificación de la ley | neutralidad en carbono | proyecto de interés común | red de energía | red transeuropea | reglamento (UE) | suministro de energía eléctrica | suministro de gas Resumen On 15 December 2020, the European Commission adopted a proposal to revise the 2013 regulation on trans- European networks in energy (TEN-E). This proposal is currently the subject of interinstitutional 'trilogue' negotiations, which started after both the European Parliament (October 2021) and the Council of the EU (June 2021) had adopted formal negotiating positions. The 2013 TEN-E Regulation sets out EU guidelines for cross-border energy infrastructure, and outlines the process for selecting projects of common interest (PCI). PCIs are infrastructure projects considered essential for delivering on EU objectives in the energy field, including improved interconnection between national markets, greater competitiveness, security of supply, and promotion of renewable energy sources. The list of PCIs is updated every two years. Certain PCI projects are eligible for EU financing from the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF). The revised TEN-E Regulation would align closely with the climate neutrality objectives of the European Green Deal: supporting energy infrastructure that consolidates new and existing clean energy technologies, and ending policy and financial support for fossil fuel projects. The latter would no longer be included on PCI lists and therefore unable to receive CEF funding. Briefing EN The SURE: Implementation Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 20-10-2021 Autor PACHECO DIAS CRISTINA SOFIA | TEIXEIRA DA CUNHA INES Ámbito político Asuntos económicos y monetarios Palabra clave aplicación del Derecho de la UE | ayuda de la UE | enfermedad por coronavirus | epidemia | financiación del presupuesto | gasto de la UE | instrumento financiero de la UE | lucha contra el paro | paro | reglamento (UE) Resumen Council Regulation 2020/672 established SURE, the European instrument for temporary support to mitigate unemployment risks in an emergency, which has been in force since 20 May 2020. This note provides an overview in tabular format of the SURE implementing decisions as adopted by Council, of Commission issuances under SURE and of disbursements. It will be regularly updated. Briefing EN Alcohol labelling Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 30-09-2021 Autor LAANINEN Tarja Ámbito político Seguridad alimentaria Palabra clave bebida alcohólica | consumo de alcohol | cáncer | denominación del producto | etiquetado | información al consumidor | marca de calidad | medicina preventiva | nutrición | reglamento (UE) | salud pública Resumen In its Europe's Beating Cancer plan, published in February 2021, the European Commission suggests – among other initiatives concerning cancer prevention – several actions concerning alcoholic beverages, such as limiting online advertising and promotion, and reviewing European Union (EU) legislation on the taxation of alcohol. Also among the proposals is mandatory labelling of ingredients and nutrient content on alcoholic beverages by the end of 2022. Health warnings on labels should follow by the end of 2023. First attempts to label ingredients of alcoholic drinks were already made in the late 1970s, however the Council was not able to agree on any of the proposed models. Furthermore, alcoholic drinks containing more than 1.2 % by volume of alcohol (ABV) are exempted from the obligation, set on other drinks and foodstuffs, to list the ingredients and make a nutritional declaration on the label. The European Commission adopted a report in 2017, concluding that it had 'not found objective grounds that would justify' the absence of information on ingredients and nutritional information on alcoholic beverages. Following on from the Commission's report, the European associations representing the alcoholic beverages sectors presented their self-regulation proposal in March 2018, suggesting that some sectors would list all ingredients on labels, while others could use online means of communication instead. Stakeholders have differing views on the desirability and feasibility of listings on- label; some would prefer this information to be allowed to be given off-label through QR-codes, apps or websites, while others absolutely insist that alcoholic drinks should be no different from other sectors of the food and drink industry. The European Parliament has called on the European Commission to consider a health warning and calorie content on alcoholic beverage labels. This is an update of a Briefing published in April 2021.

Estudio EN Access to justice in environmental matters: Amending the Aarhus Regulation Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 23-09-2021 Autor HALLEUX Vivienne Ámbito político Medio ambiente Palabra clave acceso a la información | acceso a la justicia | comunicación de datos | convención internacional | Derecho del medio ambiente | política de medio ambiente de la UE | propuesta (UE) | reglamento (UE) | transparencia del proceso decisorio | vigilancia del medio ambiente Resumen The European Union is party to the Aarhus Convention on access to information, public participation in decision- making and access to justice in environmental matters. The Aarhus Regulation applies the Convention's provisions to EU institutions and bodies. In 2017, the Aarhus Convention Compliance Committee, reviewing implementation by the parties, found that the EU fails to comply with its obligations under Article 9, paragraphs 3 and 4 of the convention concerning access to justice by members of the public. To address this non-compliance issue, on 14 October 2020 the European Commission put forward a legislative proposal to amend the Aarhus Regulation. The Council and Parliament adopted their positions on 17 December 2020 and 20 May 2021, respectively. Interinstitutional negotiations, launched on 4 June 2021, concluded on 12 July with a provisional agreement. The text, endorsed by Member States' ambassadors on 23 July, and by the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety (ENVI) on 1 September 2021, now awaits a vote in Parliament's plenary, planned for the October I session. Third edition. The 'EU Legislation in Progress' briefings are updated at key stages throughout the legislative procedure.

Exchanges of Personal Data After the Schrems II Judgment Tipo de publicación Estudio Fecha 08-07-2021 Autor externo Ian BROWN, Visiting CyberBRICS professor at Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV) Law School in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Douwe KORFF, Emeritus Professor of International Law, London Metropolitan University, UK Ámbito político Espacio de libertad, seguridad y justicia Palabra clave datos personales | Derecho de la informática | Estados Unidos | informe de investigación | intercambio de información | protección de datos | protección de la vida privada | reglamento (UE) | sentencia del Tribunal de Justicia (UE) Resumen This study, commissioned by the European Parliament’s Policy Department for Citizens’ Rights and Constitutional Affairs at the request of the LIBE Committee, examines reforms to the legal framework for the exchange of personal and other data between the EU and the USA that would be necessary to ascertain that the requirements of EU law are satisfied and that the rights of EU citizens are respected, following the Schrems II judgment of the EU Court of Justice. Estudio EN Squaring privacy rules with measures to combat child sexual abuse online Tipo de publicación De un vistazo Fecha 01-07-2021 Autor MILDEBRATH Hendrik Alexander Ámbito político Espacio de libertad, seguridad y justicia Palabra clave datos personales | Derecho de la informática | Directiva CE | informe | niño | pedofilia | pornografía infantil | propuesta (UE) | protección de datos | protección de la infancia | protección de las comunicaciones | reglamento (UE) Resumen With internet-based communications services, such as webmail, messaging services and internet telephony, becoming subject to the strict confidentiality requirements of the e-Privacy Directive, providers' deployments of specific technologies to detect, report and remove child sexual abuse material online now appear unlawful. To accommodate such practices, the European Commission proposed a regulation that would temporarily exempt them from certain provisions of the e-Privacy Directive, without, however, stipulating the legality of these practices with respect to the wider EU data protection framework. During its July plenary session, the European Parliament is due to vote at first reading on the final text resulting from interinstitutional negotiations. De un vistazo EN Prospectuses for investors – Simplifying equity-raising during the pandemic Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 01-07-2021 Autor DELIVORIAS Angelos Ámbito político Asuntos económicos y monetarios | Coronavirus Palabra clave comunicación de datos | enfermedad por coronavirus | epidemia | información al consumidor | información comercial | mercado de capitales | participación | profesión financiera | propuesta (UE) | reglamento (UE) | valor mobiliario Resumen A prospectus is a legally required document presenting information about a company and the securities that it offers to the public or seeks to admit to trading on a regulated market. The relevant EU legislation consists of a directive, adopted in 2003, amended in 2010, and finally replaced by a regulation in 2017. Drawing up a prospectus entails time and costs, which in the current economic context may deter issuers in distress from seeking to raise new funds, in particular equity. To remedy this, the Commission proposed to amend Regulation (EU) 2017/1129. These amendments aim at creating a temporary (18 month) regime for a short-form prospectus and to simplify the procedure for issuers (so that they can rapidly raise capital), as well as to release pressure on financial intermediaries. The Commission proposal was reviewed by the co-legislators who, among other things, increased the range of those who can benefit from the regime, added elements that must appear in the recovery prospectus and increased the minimum information in the prospectus. They further amended Directive 2004/109/EC (the 'Transparency Directive'), thus providing Member States with the option to postpone, by one year, the requirement for listed companies.

Replacement benchmarks for financial benchmarks in cessation Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 01-07-2021 Autor DELIVORIAS Angelos Ámbito político Asuntos económicos y monetarios Palabra clave control financiero | Euribor | evaluación comparativa de resultados | mercado de divisas | mercado financiero | modificación de la ley | propuesta (UE) | reglamentación financiera | reglamento (UE) | índice de precios Resumen The pricing of many financial instruments and contracts depends on the accuracy and integrity of (financial) benchmarks, i.e. indices, by reference to which the amounts payable under such financial instruments or contracts, or the value of certain financial instruments, are determined. The anticipated discontinuation of such a benchmark (LIBOR) after the end of 2021 has created fears that it could lead to disruption in the internal market, given that the Benchmarks Regulation ((EU) 2016/1011) does not provide for mechanisms to organise the orderly discontinuation of systemically important benchmarks in the EU. That is why the Commission has proposed to amend the said regulation. The co-legislators significantly amended the Commission’s proposal. Their amendments deal, among other things, with the replacement of a benchmark by EU, or by national law, set additional obligations for supervised entities using a benchmark, regulate the Commission’s powers to adopt delegated acts and establish additional obligations for the Commission with regards to its proposed consultation. The European Parliament adopted the compromise agreement in plenary on 19 January 2021. On 2 February 2021, the Council adopted the act. The final act was published in the Official Journal of the EU on 12 February 2021. Second edition. The 'EU Legislation in Progress' briefings are updated at key stages throughout the legislative procedure. Briefing EN Amending securitisation requirements for the impact of coronavirus Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 01-07-2021 Autor DELIVORIAS Angelos Ámbito político Asuntos económicos y monetarios | Asuntos financieros y bancarios | Coronavirus Palabra clave actividad bancaria | consecuencia económica | crédito | disponibilidad monetaria | enfermedad por coronavirus | epidemia | pequeña y mediana empresa | propuesta (UE) | reglamento (UE) | vigilancia del mercado Resumen Preserving the ability of banks to continue lending to companies, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, is key when it comes to softening the economic impact of the pandemic and easing recovery. The Commission believes that securitisation can contribute to this. It also considers that in order to increase the potential of securitisation the EU regulatory framework (Regulations (EU) 2017/2402 and (EU) 575/2013) must be updated, to cater for (i) on-balance- sheet synthetic securitisation and (ii) the securitisation of non-performing exposures (NPEs). The co-legislators amended the Commission proposal, with amendments concerning, among other things, the requirements concerning the credit protection agreement, the third party verification agent and the synthetic excess spread, the macroprudential oversight of the securitisation market, the obligations of the EBA, the reporting on prudential requirements and financial information, grandfathering for securitisation positions and NPE securitisations. The final act was signed on 31 March 2021. Second edition. The 'EU Legislation in Progress' briefings are updated at key stages throughout the legislative procedure. Briefing EN Revision of the TEN-T Regulation Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 30-06-2021 Autor DINU Alina Ileana Ámbito político Transporte Palabra clave cambio climático | economía verde | estudio de impacto | informe | infraestructura de transportes | movilidad sostenible | política común de transportes | propuesta (UE) | red transeuropea | reducción de las emisiones de gas | reglamento (UE) Resumen Regulation (EU) 1315/2013 (the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T) Regulation), has shaped EU transport infrastructure policy by strengthening the network approach. It has furthermore established guidelines for national and EU investment in transport infrastructure, and introduced targeted funding under the Connecting Europe Facility and other relevant EU schemes. In the context of new technological and social challenges and new policy approaches, the TEN-T Regulation needs to better address present and future needs. To this end, the European Commission has started a revision process that should end with the adoption of a new legislative proposal, planned for the third quarter of 2021.

2030 climate target plan: review of Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF) Regulation Tipo de publicación Estudio Fecha 25-06-2021 Autor externo Cristina, URRUTIA, Anke HEROLD and Sabine GORES Ámbito político Adopción de legislación por el PE y el Consejo | Medio ambiente | Planificación prospectiva Palabra clave adaptación al cambio climático | cambio climático | Estado miembro UE | gas con efecto invernadero | informe de investigación | política de medio ambiente de la UE | política europea forestal | reducción de las emisiones de gas | reglamento (UE) | silvicultura sostenible | utilización de las tierras | vigilancia del medio ambiente Resumen The proceedings summarise the expert presentations and discussions of the workshop on the extension of the Review of the Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry Regulation. The workshop served to prepare the ENVI Committee for the upcoming legislative “Fit for 55” package of proposals, as part of the European Green Deal. The presentations focused on options for improving carbon sinks in the EU and strengthening the LULUCF Regulation. This document was provided by the Policy Department for Economic, Scientific and Quality of Life Policies for the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety (ENVI). Estudio EN Northwest Atlantic fisheries management Tipo de publicación De un vistazo Fecha 21-06-2021 Autor SCHOLAERT FREDERIK Ámbito político Adopción de legislación por el PE y el Consejo | Pesca Palabra clave conservación de la pesca | control pesquero | derecho de pesca | Océano Atlántico | Organización de Pesquerías del Atlántico Noroeste | pesca marítima | propuesta (UE) | reglamento (UE) | zona pesquera Resumen During the June II plenary session, Parliament is expected to vote on a provisional agreement with the Council on the transposition of fisheries management measures for the Northwest Atlantic. As a contracting party to the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization (NAFO), the European Union must transpose its measures so that they apply to vessels flying the flag of EU Member States. The agreement also provides for new delegated powers to be granted to the European Commission in order to facilitate faster transposition in the future. De un vistazo EN Data Governance Act Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 17-06-2021 Autor MILDEBRATH Hendrik Alexander Ámbito político Derecho de la UE: sistema jurídico y actos legislativos | Espacio de libertad, seguridad y justicia Palabra clave datos personales | derecho a reutilizar información | Derecho de la informática | economía digital | informe | intercambio de información | mercado único digital | propuesta (UE) | protección de datos | protección de la vida privada | reglamento (UE) Resumen Data is a key pillar of the European digital economy. To unlock its potential, the European Commission aims to build a market for personal and non-personal data that fully respects European rules and values. While the volume of data is expected to increase dramatically in the coming years, data re-use is hampered by low trust in data-sharing, conflicting economic incentives and technological obstacles. As the first of a set of measures announced in the European strategy for data, the Commission put forward its proposed data governance act on 25 November 2020. It aims at facilitating (largely) voluntary data sharing across the EU and between sectors by strengthening mechanisms that increase data availability and foster trust in intermediaries. It establishes three principle re-use mechanisms and a horizontal coordination and steering board. While there seems to be considerable support for data governance rules, the appropriate approach remains fundamentally disputed. Issues have been raised concerning, for instance, the ineffectiveness of labelling and registration regimes to foster trust and data re-use, the uncertain interplay with other legislative acts, the onerous rules on international data transfers and the vulnerability of certain mechanisms to commercial exploitation. The co-legislators, the European Parliament and Council, are in the process of assessing whether the Commission's proposal presents an adequate response to the challenges identified and are working towards defining their respective positions.

Background note on “Simplification” for the CONT hearing: “Will simplification suggested for the new MFF period bring the necessary balance between more efficient, effective and correct spending of EU funds?” Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 15-06-2021 Autor CALATOZZOLO Rita Ámbito político Control presupuestario | Presupuesto Palabra clave cohesión económica y social | Fondos Estructurales y de Inversión Europeos | formalidad administrativa | informe | intervención normativa | marco financiero plurianual | política agrícola común | programa marco de IDT | reglamento (UE) | reparto de la financiación de la UE | simplificación legislativa | Tribunal de Cuentas Europeo Resumen This note intends to provide general information about simplification as well as to look a bit more in detail on this issue in the framework of Cohesion Policy, Common Agricultural Policy and Research. These three EU policies represent sectors that largely benefit from the financing of the EU budget and have experienced simplification due to the response of the Commission, the European Parliament and the Council to the requests of final beneficiaries. At the same time, there have been repeated calls from the European Court of Auditors regarding these policies to reduce their complexity and further apply simplification measures, without compromising their functioning and the sound financial management of the EU budget. Briefing EN The Use of SLAPPs to Silence Journalists, NGOs and Civil Society Tipo de publicación Estudio Fecha 14-06-2021 Autor externo Justin BORG-BARTHET Benedetta LOBINA Magdalena ZABROCKA.

It is recommended that an anti-SLAPP Directive should be adopted, and that the Brussels Ia Regulation and Rome II Regulation should be recast to limit the incidence of SLAPPs. Estudio EN Establishing the new EU strategy on adaptation to climate change Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 27-05-2021 Autor VIKOLAINEN Vera Ámbito político Evaluación de impacto ex ante | Medio ambiente Palabra clave adaptación al cambio climático | cambio climático | Derecho del medio ambiente | economía verde | estrategia de la UE | estudio de impacto | informe | reglamento (UE) Resumen This briefing provides an initial analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the European Commission's impact assessment (IA) accompanying the above-mentioned communication on the new EU strategy on adaptation to climate change (new adaptation strategy), which aims to realise the 2050 vision of a climate-resilient EU. The IA was published on 24 February 2021 and was subsequently referred to the European Parliament's Committee on Environment, Pubic Health and Food Safety (ENVI). The Commission's communication builds on Article 4 of the proposal for a European climate law regulation, which requires the Member States and the EU to enhance their adaptive capacity, strengthen their resilience and reduce their vulnerability to climate change. The new EU adaptation strategy was first announced in the European Green Deal communication in December 2019. The European Parliament welcomed the new strategy as a key component of the EU's climate policy in its resolution of 17 December 2020 and called for a renewed and improved focus on climate adaptation. The Council, meanwhile, repeatedly stressed the need for further action on adaptation, most recently in January 2020. The new strategy on adaptation to climate change is part of the 2021 Commission work programme. Briefing EN 09-01-2022 Fuente : © Unión Europea, 2022 - PE 6

Waste Shipment Regulation Tipo de publicaciónBriefing Fecha 08-04-2021 AutorKARAMFILOVA Ekaterina Ámbito políticoMedio ambiente Palabra claveaplicación del Derecho de la UE | control de las exportaciones | economía circular | estudio de impacto | exportación de residuos | gestión de residuos | protección del medio ambiente | reglamento (UE) | residuos peligrosos | riesgo sanitario Resumen The New Circular Economy Action Plan is one of the main building blocks of the European Green Deal. It sets initiatives along the entire lifecycle of products with the aim to ensure that the resources used for their production, including the waste generated, are kept in the EU economy for as long as possible. At the same time, the circular economy policy aims at protecting the environment and empowering the consumers. Waste shipment within and outside the EU has a crucial role in achieving the EU circular economy objectives. At EU level, the transboundary movements of waste are governed by Regulation (EC) 1013/2006 on shipments of waste (WSR). However, the current design and implementation of the regulation suffer from deficiencies and thus challenge the achievement of the EU circular economy objectives. This Implementation Appraisal looks at the practical implementation of the WSR in light of the Commission proposal for a revision of the regulation expected in the second quarter of 2021. Briefing EN Technical Support Instrument Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 30-03-2021 Autor SPINACI STEFANO Ámbito político Asuntos económicos y monetarios | Presupuesto Palabra clave ayuda de la UE | cohesión económica y social | enfermedad por coronavirus | epidemia | instrumento financiero de la UE | propuesta (UE) | recuperación económica | reglamento (UE) Resumen On 28 May 2020, the European Commission adopted a proposal for a regulation on a Technical Support Instrument that would provide Member States with technical support to strengthen their institutional and administrative capacity in designing and implementing reforms. In the context of the 'Next Generation EU' recovery plan, it would support them to prepare and implement recovery and resilience plans, and make reforms and investments related to the green and digital transitions. Modelled on an instrument proposed by the Commission in 2018, the Technical Support Instrument would replace the Structural Reform Support Programme that has helped implement over 1 000 reform projects in the Member States since 2017. This new instrument has a budget of €864 million over the 2021-2027 period (in current prices); by contrast, the Structural Reform Support Programme had a budget of €222.8 million for 2017-2020. At the European Parliament, the Committee on Budgets (BUDG) and the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs (ECON) worked jointly on this file under Rule 58 of the Parliament's Rules of Procedure. After interinstitutional negotiations, on 19 January 2021, the Parliament adopted the compromise text at first reading. The final act was signed on 10 February and published in the Official Journal on 19 February; the regulation entered into force the following day. Second edition.

Established in 2000 and reviewed in 2013, its main purpose is to facilitate the application of the Dublin Regulation. The 2013 revision broadened the scope to provide law enforcement authorities with access to the Eurodac database. As part of the reform of the common European asylum system in 2016, the European Commission proposed a recast Eurodac Regulation. The co-legislators reached a partial agreement on the proposal in 2018. As part of the broader migration and asylum pact, the new Commission presented an amended proposal on 23 September 2020.

Schengen Borders Code Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 26-03-2021 Autor AHAMAD MADATALI HANNAH NAFIZE Ámbito político Evaluación de la legislación y las políticas en la práctica Palabra clave Acuerdo de Schengen | ciudadano de la UE | control fronterizo | cooperación transfronteriza | enfermedad por coronavirus | epidemia | extranjero | frontera exterior de la UE | frontera interior de la UE | reglamento (UE) Resumen Presently, the Schengen Area is confronted with a different reality than in 2016, when the European Parliament and Council approved Regulation (EU) 2016/399 (as codification of Regulation (EC) No 562/2006 and its subsequent amendments), establishing a Union Code on the rules governing the movement of persons across borders (Schengen Borders Code). As stated in the Commission Work Programme of 2021, the current health crisis and pandemic, and recent developments - related to security concerns and the arrival of refugees -, have exposed the EU’s need to strengthen its crisis preparedness and management of cross-border pressures, as well as keeping the Schengen legislation updated, making it suitable to endure the test of time.

De un vistazo EN Review of EU Enforcement Regulation for trade disputes Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 19-03-2021 Autor GRIEGER Gisela Ámbito político Adopción de legislación por el PE y el Consejo | Comercio internacional Palabra clave comercio internacional | disputa comercial | país tercero | política comercial común | propuesta (UE) | reglamento (UE) | solución de conflictos Resumen On 12 December 2019, the European Commission adopted a proposal to amend Regulation (EU) No 654/2014 concerning the exercise of the EU's rights for the application and enforcement of international trade rules ('the Enforcement Regulation') of 15 May 2014. The Enforcement Regulation enables the EU to suspend or withdraw concessions or other obligations under international trade agreements in order to respond to breaches by third countries of international trade rules that affect the EU's commercial interests. The proposed amendments were aimed at empowering the EU to impose counter-measures in situations where EU trade partners violate international trade rules and block the dispute settlement procedures included in multilateral, regional and bilateral trade agreements, thus preventing the EU from obtaining final binding rulings in its favour. - The Council adopted its negotiating position on 8 April 2020, and the Committee on International Trade (INTA) of the European Parliament adopted its position on 6 July 2020. Trilogue negotiations concluded on 28 October with a provisional agreement, which INTA endorsed on 10 November. Parliament adopted the agreed text on 19 January 2021. Following the Council's approval, the Regulation as amended entered into force on 13 February 2021. Third edition.

Reform of the Comitology Regulation Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 04-03-2021 Autor MAŃKO Rafał Ámbito político Democracia en la UE, Derecho institucional y parlamentario Palabra clave comitología | comité (UE) | competencia institucional (UE) | poder de ejecución | propuesta (UE) | reglamento (UE) | transparencia del proceso decisorio | votación Resumen On 14 February 2017, the European Commission adopted a proposal amending Regulation (EU) No 182/2011 (the 'Comitology Regulation') in order to increase the transparency and accountability of the decision-making process leading to the adoption of implementing acts. The main elements of the proposal include amending the voting rules for the Appeal Committee (AC) in order to reduce the risk of a no opinion scenario and to clarify the positions of the Member States, providing for the possibility of a further referral to the AC at ministerial level if no opinion is delivered, and increasing the transparency of the comitology procedure by making public the votes of the Member States' representatives in the AC. Following the opinions of a number of committees, submitted in the previous and current terms, on 12 October 2020, Parliament's Committee on Legal Affairs adopted its report. It proposes to oblige Member States' representatives to give reasons for their vote, abstention or for any absence from the vote, and where particularly sensitive areas are concerned (consumer protection, health and safety of humans, animals or plants, or the environment), also case-specific detailed reasons for their vote or abstention. Other amendments concern better accessibility to the comitology register to increase transparency for citizens, and empowering Parliament and Council to call on the Commission to submit a proposal amending the basic act, where they deem it appropriate to review the implementing powers granted to the Commission. A partial first-reading report was adopted on 17 December 2020 in plenary and the file was referred back to the Legal Affairs Committee for interinstitutional negotiations. First edition. The 'EU Legislation in Progress' briefings are updated at key stages throughout the legislative procedure. Briefing EN Marketing standards for fishery and aquaculture products: Revision of Regulation (EC) No1379/2013 Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 01-03-2021 Autor DINU Alina Ileana Ámbito político Mercado interior y unión aduanera | Pesca Palabra clave acuicultura | aplicación del Derecho de la UE | estudio de impacto | etiqueta ecológica | informe | norma de comercialización | norma medioambiental | organización común de mercado | producto pesquero | reglamento (UE) Resumen The marketing standards for fishery and aquaculture products are covered by the Common Market Organisation (CMO) Regulation (regulation 1379/2013), one of the pillars of EU’s Common Fisheries Policy (CFP). The marketing standards for FAPs have remained unchanged for more than 20 years and in 2018 they were submitted to an evaluation process by the European Commission. The expected outcome is the release of a new legislative proposal by the first half of 2021, in line with the European Commission's Farm to Fork strategy. Briefing EN Roaming Regulation: EU Digital Single Market policy Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 15-02-2021 Autor ZYGIEREWICZ Anna Ámbito político Evaluación de la legislación y las políticas en la práctica | Transposición y aplicación de la legislación Palabra clave cooperación transfronteriza | flujo transfronterizo de datos | itinerancia | mercado único digital | política europea de vecindad | protección del consumidor | reglamento (UE) | regulación de precios | tarifa de comunicaciones Resumen The Roaming Regulation established the ‘Roam-Like-At-Home’ (RLAH) rule that mandated the end of retail roaming charges as of 15 June 2017 in the EU. The Regulation will be in force until 30 June 2022. In 2021, the European Commission would review the Regulation, assessing its effects and the need to prolong it. The analysis of the Body of European Regulators for Electronic Communications (BEREC) shows that a regulatory intervention is still necessary to ensure the EU citizens can continue to benefit of the RLAH rule.

To bridge these gaps, the European Commission proposed to broaden the scope of Regulation (EU) No 654/2014 concerning the exercise of the EU's rights for the application and enforcement of international trade rules ('the Enforcement Regulation'). The European Parliament is scheduled to vote at first reading during the January plenary session on the text agreed in trilogue with the Council.

In 2017, the Commission proposed amendments to this Regulation, aimed at eliminating 'no opinion' deadlocks in the appeal committee and increasing transparency in the procedure. The European Parliament is expected to vote on the proposal during the December plenary session.

The study reviewed recent policy documents, and identified a range of weaknesses for the provision of contact points. The main recommendations were to improve monitoring (using the indicators and the Single Market Scoreboard) and make use of infringement proceedings in case of non-compliance. The actions could be built on the instruments available under the recent Single Digital Gateway Regulation. This document was provided by the Policy Department for Economic, Scientific and Quality of Life Policies at the request of the committee on Internal Market and Consumer Protection (IMCO).

Se anunció como parte del Instrumento Europeo de Recuperación Next Generation EU, destinado a contrarrestar el impacto de la pandemia de coronavirus. El Consejo Europeo de julio redujo el presupuesto del programa de los 9 400 millones de euros propuestos inicialmente a 1 700 millones de euros. En su informe, la Comisión de Medio Ambiente, Salud Pública y Seguridad Alimentaria del Parlamento Europeo propone, entre otras cosas, restablecer el presupuesto inicial de «La UE por la Salud». El Parlamento tiene previsto someter a votación dicha propuesta durante el periodo parcial de sesiones de noviembre I. De este modo se abriría el camino para las negociaciones tripartitas.

The current guidelines for the trans-European energy infrastructure were established by Regulation (EU) No 347/2013 (the TEN-E Regulation). The European Commission is currently carrying out a multi-step revision process of the regulation, with a view to making the EU energy infrastructure fully consistent with and a driver for the EU's 2050 climate neutrality ambition. In this respect, a new proposal is expected by the end of 2020. Briefing EN 09-01-2022 Fuente : © Unión Europea, 2022 - PE 11
Review of the Benchmark Regulation Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 06-10-2020 Autor TUOMINEN ULLA-MARI Ámbito político Asuntos financieros y bancarios Palabra clave control financiero | estudio de impacto | Euribor | mercado financiero | protección del consumidor | reglamentación financiera | reglamento (UE) | índice de precios Resumen The European Commission's proposal to amend the existing Benchmark Regulation (BMR) aims to address the expected cessation of the widely used LIBOR critical benchmark, as the BMR does not provide mechanisms to manage the consequences of the cessation of such critical benchmarks. The BMR would be amended also to ensure that European Union banks and companies can continue using hedging tools against the volatility of currencies that are not freely convertible into their base currency after the expiry of the transitional period at the end of 2021. The initiative is part of measures contributing to a capital markets union and an economy that works for people. The initial appraisal – which provides an analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the European Commission's impact assessment (IA) accompanying the proposal – finds that the IA is underpinned by sound and recent data and extensive stakeholder consultations. The problem definition, objectives and policy options are clearly linked. Briefing EN Solvency Support Instrument Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 06-10-2020 Autor SZCZEPANSKI Marcin Ámbito político Asuntos económicos y monetarios | Coronavirus | Presupuesto Palabra clave ayuda de la UE | empresa en crisis | enfermedad por coronavirus | epidemia | propuesta (UE) | recuperación económica | reglamento (UE) | solvencia Resumen In May 2020, the European Commission adopted a proposal on a Solvency Support Instrument. The aim is to support otherwise viable companies in the Union that face solvency difficulties as a result of the coronavirus crisis, and to mitigate possible distortions to the single market and its level playing field. Such distortions are to be expected given the differing degree to which the Member States are affected and the likely unevenness of their responses, which may depend on their fiscal capacity and level of debt. The Commission proposes to increase the guarantee provided to the European Investment Bank under the European Fund for Strategic Investments and to use it to support financial intermediaries, which will then select companies eligible for solvency help. At the European Council meeting in July 2020, EU Heads of State or Government did not take up the idea of the solvency support instrument. Both the European Parliament and Commission President, Ursula von der Leyen, have expressed regret at this. Continuing the examination of the proposal in Parliament, the co-rapporteurs have published a draft report in which they propose to widen the scope of eligible companies and ensure fair geographical distribution. Briefing EN Review of the Benchmark Regulation Tipo de publicación Briefing Fecha 01-10-2020 Autor BINDER ECKHARD Ámbito político Adopción de legislación por el PE y el Consejo | Evaluación de la legislación y las políticas en la práctica | Transposición y aplicación de la legislación Palabra clave aplicación del Derecho de la UE | control financiero | Euribor | mercado financiero | protección del consumidor | reglamentación financiera | reglamento (UE) | índice de precios Resumen On 27 July 2017, the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) announced its resolution to phase out the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) by the end of 2021. As supervisor of the LIBOR, the FCA wanted to allow for a smooth transition to alternative reference rates of this widely used benchmark. On 24 July 2020, the European Commission adopted a proposal to amend the Benchmarks, Regulation. The most important part of this proposal is to regulate the replacement rate of a benchmark in cessation (in this case: LIBOR) and to avoid a legal vacuum. This amendment would empower the European Commission to designate, by an implementing act, a statutory replacement rate to replace the reference to the benchmark in cessation, if this cessation may result in significant disruption of financial markets in the Union.
