Dear colleagues, please take your seats.
The next item on our agenda is the presentation of draft report on European Union regulatory fitness, subsidiarity, and proportionality, report on better law-making, covering two years, 2025 and 2026. This is a standing JURI competence, and today, we will consider amendments tabled to the draft report, which Mr Warborn presented at the extraordinary committee meeting on 8th of October. So, with that, I would like to give you the floor, Mr Warborn.

Speaker 2
Thank you, Chair, dear colleagues. I want to start by thanking all of you for your work on the amendments. We have received in total 255 amendments from seven political groups, and I'm pleased to say that there is a lot of common ground here. I will start with my own amendments, and then I'll turn to yours. First, impact assessment.

The SME test and the competitiveness check must also apply when the proposal is urgent.
