  • Letter to the Commission Regarding Printers Voluntary Agreement
    Brussels, Wednesday 26th of May To: Mr Virginijus Sinkevičius, European Commissioner for Environment, Oceans and Fisheries Mr Thierry Breton, European Commissioner for the Internal Market Mr Frans Timmermans, European Commission Executive Vice-President for the European Green Deal We urge the European Commission to keep its promises and propose a regulatory measure addressing the durability and repairability of printers as well as the reusability of cartridges as part of the forthcoming Circular Electronics Initiative. And we ask that the Commission rejects the proposed voluntary agreement drafted by manufacturers. The Commission's flagship Circular Economy Action Plan, adopted in March 2020, has set out to address the entire life cycle of products and tackle their premature obsolescence notably by promoting the right to repair for ICT products. In addition to mobile phones, laptops and tablets, the Plan has rightfully identified printers as a particularly wasteful product category, and has included a commitment to tackle them by means of a dedicated regulatory instrument “unless the sector reaches an ambitious voluntary agreement” by September 2020. Nearly one year later, the discussions on the voluntary agreement have not yielded any tangible results. Voluntary approaches clearly do not work. We need strong regulatory action now. We are extremely concerned by this situation. Not only because of the negative impacts of short-lived printers on the environment and on consumers but also because we are witnessing promises made being walked back on. Printers are one of the most iconic examples of premature obsolescence. Our analysis of printers in use today suggests that over 80% of them have been in use for less than 3 years, and only about 4% have been in use for 5 years or longer.

  • Lo Scorso Giugno L'organizzazione Internazionale Wikileaks Ha Pubblicato Una Presunta Bozza Dell'accordo Commerciale Sugli Scambi Di Servizi (Tisa)
    Lo scorso giugno l'organizzazione internazionale WikiLeaks ha pubblicato una presunta bozza dell'Accordo commerciale sugli scambi di servizi (TiSA). Tali rivelazioni, che denotano importanti conseguenze in merito alla privatizzazione di servizi fondamentali, come banche, sanità e istruzione, vanno ad aggiungersi alle analisi previste dai negoziati in atto, quali la disamina dei principi comuni per la regolamentazione dei servizi finanziari e la valutazione dei potenziali vantaggi per crescita e occupazione. L'UE ha inoltre pubblicato recentemente un concept paper che indica una struttura dell'accordo basata su un approccio modulare simile a quello utilizzato per il ciclo negoziale di Doha. Per giunta l'accordo, oltre ad essere delineato con marginale trasparenza, potrebbe, secondo le disposizioni, non essere rivelato per i cinque anni successivi alla sua approvazione. A tal proposito, può la Commissione indicare: — come il TiSA determinerà le politiche economiche dei maggiori paesi a capitalismo avanzato e se i parlamenti degli Stati interessati verranno coinvolti; — quali benefici concreti potranno avverarsi per crescita e occupazione, e come il disciplinamento delle attività finanziarie e dei servizi summenzionati verrà alterato; — se ritiene che l'approccio strutturale indicato possa portare a un risultato fallimentare come accaduto per il Doha Round e se, in omaggio alla trasparenza, prevede una consultazione pubblica relativamente ai dieci cicli di negoziati che avranno luogo quest'autunno? Marco Valli (EFDD) , Tiziana Beghin (EFDD) , David Borrelli (EFDD) , Fabio Massimo Castaldo (EFDD) , Ignazio Corrao (EFDD) , Laura Ferrara (EFDD) , Dario Tamburrano (EFDD) , Marco Zanni (EFDD) Secondo quanto riferito di recente da diversi comunicati stampa, la Commissione potrebbe approvare il piano di aiuti di Stato del Regno Unito a favore della centrale nucleare «Hinkley Point C».

  • Uef-Spinelli Group
    UEF-SPINELLI GROUP MANIFESTO 9 MAY 2021 At watershed moments in history, communities need to adapt their institutions to avoid sliding into irreversible decline, thus equipping themselves to govern new circumstances. After the end of the Cold War the European Union, with the creation of the monetary Union, took a first crucial step towards adapting its institutions; but it was unable to agree on a true fiscal and social policy for the Euro. Later, the Lisbon Treaty strengthened the legislative role of the European Parliament, but again failed to create a strong economic and political union in order to complete the Euro. Resulting from that, the EU was not equipped to react effectively to the first major challenges and crises of the XXI century: the financial crash of 2008, the migration flows of 2015- 2016, the rise of national populism, and the 2016 Brexit referendum. This failure also resulted in a strengthening of the role of national governments — as shown, for example, by the current excessive concentration of power within the European Council, whose actions are blocked by opposing national vetoes —, and in the EU’s chronic inability to develop a common foreign policy capable of promoting Europe’s common strategic interests. Now, however, the tune has changed. In the face of an unprecedented public health crisis and the corresponding collapse of its economies, Europe has reacted with unity and resolve, indicating the way forward for the future of European integration: it laid the foundations by starting with an unprecedented common vaccination strategy, for a “Europe of Health”, and unveiled a recovery plan which will be financed by shared borrowing and repaid by revenue from new EU taxes levied on the digital and financial giants and on polluting industries.

  • Helena Dalli, European Commissioner for Equality
    Members of the European Parliament’s Intergroup on LGBTI Rights Intergroup on Children’s Rights To: Helena Dalli, European Commissioner for Equality Brussels, 20 March 2020 Subject: Protection of rainbow families and their children as regards their freedom of movement Honorable Commissioner, Freedom of movement is a fundamental right and needs to be guaranteed for all EU citizens, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. Especially children in rainbow families must be fully protected from a situation of legal uncertainty and emotional limbo created by the interpretation and application of uneven rules across the European Union. EU citizens and their family members have the right to move freely and live in another EU country1. This very same right is appallingly denied to rainbow families and their children in some member states, where national and local authorities refuse to recognise their family status – as this has already legally been established in another EU Member State – and deprive them of their fundamental rights which they derive from EU law. This legal patchwork creates a situation in which same-sex spouses and their children are less protected than different-sex spouses regarding parental rights, the citizenship of their children, tax credits, access to health care, parental leave and inheritance. Differences in legal gender recognition also negatively impact on trans parents moving to Member States without similar mechanisms, resulting in difficulties or impossibility to recognise their parenthood. In some cases, these parents and their children receive no protection and their families are not even recognised to exist. We believe that every family should continue to exist when crossing EU borders.

  • Cross Party MEP Statement in Support of Fossil Gas Exclusion from the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF)
    Cross party MEP statement in support of fossil gas exclusion from the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) To be consistent with the Parliament's climate ambition and to deliver a just transition to climate neutrality, fossil fuels should be fully excluded from EU public funds. This exclusion is especially relevant to the Recovery & Resilience Facility (RRF) which will be voted on in the ECON/BUDG committees in November. We, elected MEPs, call on the EU institutions to adopt an EU budget and recovery package excluding all new fossil fuel investments from EU public funding, including the RRF, the Just Transition and the Cohesion Funds. The EU budget and Next Generation EU will together total over €1.8 trillion in public investment. The investment decisions made within these frameworks will determine not only how and whether the EU meets its climate targets in line with limiting global temperature rise to 1.5°C, it will decide whether it recovers sustainably and whether the recovery and transition is just. The European Parliament has demonstrated undeniable ambition with its recent call to raise the emission reduction target from 40% to 60% by 2030 as well as the ENVI committee’s decision to exclude fossil fuels from the €672,5bn heavy EU recovery and resilience facility (RRF). Investing further into European fossil fuel infrastructure is not cost effective and will create stranded assets, condemning regions and EU citizens to yet another, costly and difficult transition within the next 15 years. However, investing in a green recovery will boost the economy and create jobs. Solar and wind are now the cheapest source of new-build electricity generation in many European states.

  • 7 July 2020 Sustainable and Safe Active Mobility in the European
    7 July 2020 Sustainable and safe active mobility in the European Parliament Dear President Sassoli, Dear Secretary General Welle, We hope you are keeping well in this challenging period. As the world continues to adapt to the reality of living with Covid-19, we would like to ask you to ensure the European Parliament plays its part when it comes to the issue of mobility in the European Quarter. Many of the thousands of staff working for the institutions normally reach their workplace by taking public transport, but given the required social distancing measures as well as capacity issues, public transport is not a viable option for all under Covid-19. In the short-term, walking and cycling need to be prioritised as modes of transport, something which the World Health Organisation in fact recommends. This prioritisation would be in line with the European Green Deal (which the European Parliament has committed to) and the Commission’s recent statements on the need to promote active mobility within the EU. In this crisis therefore, the European institutions should lead by example in the field of sustainable and safe active mobility. Now is the time to act by working together with the cities that host our institutions. The region of Brussels adopted its regional mobility plan GoodMove earlier this year as a reaction to two of the most pressing issues of our time: climate change and air pollution. The plan won the European Commission’s 8th Award for Sustainable Urban Mobility Planning (SUMP). It structures the region into quarters with low traffic density (so-called mailles or mazen), the European Quarter being one of them.
