AGRI European Parliament
Follow its sittings03:22 - 03:24
Speaker 1
Good morning, colleagues.
03:24 - 04:26
Speaker 3
I just would like to inform you that as you can see, Commissioner Hansen is already here with us and I would like to ask you please to take a seat, because I think it's time to start slow, please. So, good morning, everybody. Today we are pleased to welcome Commissioner Hansen to discuss two topics: the European promotion policy and the annual report on simplification, implementation and enforcement. Dear Commissioner, as you know, 1 month ago, this committee voted on an implementation report on the EU promotion policy, which is the responsibility of our colleague, Mr. Salvatore De Meo - yes, he is here.
04:27 - 05:55
Speaker 2
The report emphasizes the importance of maintaining ambitious funding levels for EU food promotion, and express deep concern that the Commission's draft budget for '27 proposes significant reductions to this funding. This is in concern with the Commission's statement, stated ambition to increase the recognition and uptake the European agri-food products. The report also calls for the budget to be maintained at the '26 level at least. The second issue we are looking forward to discuss with you is the annual report on simplification, implementation, enforcement. Last year, around the same time, you presented to us the first version of this report.
Since then, co-legislators has adopted, have adopted a comprehensive package simplifying CAP basic legislation for '23 to '27. And currently work to establish the Parliament's position on the simplification omnibus on food and feed on the, and CAP among others, aiming at being simplified. So, there, Christophe, you have just now 10 minutes for your presentation, and we are looking forward to hear you. Please, the floor is yours.
