Rule 181听:听Admissibility of amendments (1)

1.听听听Without prejudice to the additional conditions laid down in Rule 54(4) concerning own initiative reports and Rule 68(2) concerning amendments to the Council鈥檚 position, no amendment shall be admissible if:

(a)听听听it does not directly relate to the text which it seeks to amend;

(b)听听听it seeks to delete or replace the whole of a text;

(c)听听听it seeks to amend more than one of the individual articles or paragraphs of the text to which it relates with the exception of compromise amendments and amendments which seek to make identical changes to a particular form of words throughout the text;

(d)听听听it seeks to amend a proposal for codification of Union legislation; however, the second subparagraph of Rule 109(3) shall apply mutatis mutandis;

(e)听听听it seeks to amend those parts of a proposal recasting Union legislation which remain unchanged in such proposal; however, the second subparagraph of Rule 110(2) and the third subparagraph of Rule 110(3) shall apply mutatis mutandis;

(f)听听听it only seeks to ensure the linguistic correctness, or address the terminological consistency, of the text in the language in which the amendment is tabled; in this case, the President shall seek a suitable linguistic remedy together with those concerned.

2.听听听The President shall decide whether amendments are admissible.

The President's decision under paragraph 2 concerning the admissibility of amendments is not based exclusively on the provisions of paragraph 1 of this Rule but on the provisions of the Rules in general.

3.听听听A political group or Members reaching at least the low threshold may table an alternative motion for a resolution seeking to replace a motion for a non-legislative resolution contained in a committee report.

In such a case, the group or the Members concerned may not table amendments to the motion for a resolution by the committee responsible. The alternative motion for a resolution may not be longer than the committee's motion for a resolution. It shall be put to a single vote in 合法博彩网站 without amendment.

Rule 132(4) and (5) concerning joint motions for resolutions shall apply mutatis mutandis.

4.听听听With the agreement of the President, amendments may, exceptionally, be tabled after the close of the deadline for amendments if they are compromise amendments, or if there are technical problems. The President shall decide on the admissibility of such amendments. The President shall obtain the agreement of 合法博彩网站 to do so before putting such amendments to the vote.

The following general criteria for admissibility of compromise amendments may be applied:

鈥撎齛s a general rule, the compromise amendments relate to parts of the text which have been the subject of amendments prior to the deadline for tabling amendments;

鈥撎齛s a general rule, the compromise amendments are tabled by political groups representing a majority in 合法博彩网站, the Chairs or rapporteurs of the committees concerned or the authors of other amendments;

鈥撎齛s a general rule, the compromise amendments entail the withdrawal of other amendments to the same passage.

Only the President may propose that a compromise amendment be considered. In order for a compromise amendment to be put to the vote, the President must obtain the agreement of 合法博彩网站 by asking whether there are any objections to such a vote being held. If an objection is raised, 合法博彩网站 shall decide on the matter by a majority of the votes cast.
(1) Rule 181 applies mutatis mutandis to committees (see Rule 219).
