Speaker 2
Good morning, everyone. It will be a very long day, so it's better we start. We start with the adoption of the agenda. If there are no objections, the draft agenda can be adopted without modification. Please note that the committee meeting slot of Thursday 5th 5 of November has been canceled.
Interpretation is available in 21 languages. Speakers are invited to speak their mother language. As usual, the meeting file is available electronically via the eMeeting application, and the meeting will be webstreamed. Please note that the ENVI sent vote, which it was scheduled for today, has been postponed, and it will now take place on the 10th of November at 9:00. Report back on ongoing interinstitutional negotiations.
On 20 of October, at the first informal trilogue, the European Parliament and the Council reached a provisional agreement on the proposal for a decision amending decision as regards ceasing the invalidation of allowances in the market stability reserve. Please note that since the co-legislators agreed to keep the invalidation mechanism in place, but with a higher invalidation threshold, the title of the decision will be modified as follows: amending decision as regards the invalidation of allowances in the market stability reserve. This afternoon, ENVI will vote on the provisional agreement. Amending regulation as regards the extension of its scope to downstream goods and anti-circumvention measures. On 20 of October, at this at the first informal trilogue on the proposal for a regulation amending the CBAM regulation as regards the extension of its scope to downstream goods and anti-circumvention measure, Parliament and Council held a discussion on the political issues arising from their mandates.
The two co-legislators discuss the topics where the mandates of Parliament and the Council are not aligned, namely, de minimis threshold, the treatment of scrap, the use of global default values for selection of downstream goods, electricity distance sales, and least-developed countries and cooperation with third countries. Overall, the meeting allowed the co-legislators to understand each other's concerns and to build the next negotiation steps until the next trilogue foreseen on 30 of November. So now let's move to the item number four, that is the exchange of view on an objection to a committee implementing decision updating the European list of ship recycling facilities under Regulation 1257/2013. The objection tabled by Sara Matthieu, Bruno Tobback, Gerben-Jan Gerbrandy, and Anja Hazekamp concerned the proposed inclusion of two ship recycling facilities in India and raises questions regarding their compliance with EU environmental and safety requirements. I would now like to give the floor to Mrs. to Ms. Matthieu to present the objection.
