Briefing - Package travel and linked travel arrangements: Improving protection for travellers - 13-02-2025

Wed, 12 Feb 2025 23:00:00 GMT

On 29 November 2023, the European Commission adopted a proposal for a directive amending Directive (EU) 2015/2302 on package travel and linked travel arrangements, to improve protection for travellers and simplify and clarify certain aspects of the current directive. The Commission announced in a 2020 communication on a new consumer agenda that it would look into revising the directive following the turmoil caused by the mass cancellations during the COVID-19 pandemic. The proposal is the result of two years of stakeholder consultations and a reassessment of the current rules. The main changes focus on securing travellers' rights and improving insolvency protection. Other key changes include extending the directive's scope to lay down rules on contracts between package organisers and service providers. In the European �Ϸ��վ, the file has been referred to the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection (IMCO). After the European elections, a rapporteur was reappointed on 30 September 2024. In the meantime, the Council adopted its negotiating mandate on 18 December 2024. Second edition.

Briefing - Cross-border exchange of information on road safety-related traffic offences - 22-01-2025

Tue, 21 Jan 2025 23:00:00 GMT

Road safety has improved significantly in the EU, with the number of road fatalities falling by more than 60 % in the last 20 years. However, improvements in road safety fell short of the EU goals of decreasing the number of road deaths by 50 % between 2001 and 2010, and by an additional 50 % between 2011 and 2020. Directive (EU) 2015/413 facilitating cross-border exchange of information on road safety-related traffic offences – the Cross-border Enforcement (CBE) Directive – is one of the pillars of the policy framework to improve road safety in the EU. It aims to help improve road safety by tackling the relative impunity of non-resident drivers. The revision, announced in the European Commission's sustainable and smart mobility strategy in 2020, seeks to address key shortcomings in existing rules. According to Commission estimates, 40 % of cross-border offences are committed with impunity, either because the offender is not identified or because the fine is not enforced. The Commission tabled its proposal to revise the CBE Directive on 1 March 2023 as part of the road safety package. In the European �Ϸ��վ, the file was assigned to the Committee on Transport and Tourism (rapporteur: Kosma Złotowski, ECR, Poland). Following interinstitutional negotiations, the �Ϸ��վ and Council negotiators reached a provisional agreement on the final wording of the text on 12 March 2024. The �Ϸ��վ approved the agreed text on 24 April 2024. The Council adopted the new rules on 16 December 2024 and the final act was published in the Official Journal of the EU on 30 December 2024.

Briefing - Revision of the Port State Control Directive - 18-12-2024

Tue, 17 Dec 2024 23:00:00 GMT

On 1 June 2023, the European Commission presented a legislative package to modernise and reinforce maritime rules on safety and pollution prevention. It contains proposals to revise five legal acts, including the Port State Control Directive (PSCD). The aim is to update them to bring them into line with the requirements of the International Maritime Organization and the regional organisation for port state control, set up under the Paris Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). The proposal refers to the inspection of foreign ships in national ports, to verify that the ships' condition complies with international regulations, including for crews. The PSCD would be extended to cover additional international rules such as new conventions on ballast water and removal of wrecks, and updated rules under the Paris MoU. It would give more importance to ships' environmental performance in determining their risk profile, and boost Member States' capacity to detect and address cases of non-compliance with standards and rules on safety, environmental protection and pollution prevention. The scope would be extended to fishing vessels. �Ϸ��վ's Committee on Transport and Tourism (TRAN) adopted its report on 7 December 2023. On 27 February 2024, �Ϸ��վ and Council reached a provisional agreement, which TRAN endorsed on 20 March 2024. On 10 April 2024, �Ϸ��վ adopted the provisional agreement in plenary, concluding its first reading. On 18 November 2024, Council adopted �Ϸ��վ's first-reading position. The final act was signed by the Council president and the �Ϸ��վ president on 27 November 2024. The revised directive was published in the Official Journal of the EU on 16 December 2024 and will enter into force 20 days from this date.

Briefing - Single European Sky 2+ package - 22-11-2024

Thu, 21 Nov 2024 23:00:00 GMT

The Single European Sky (SES) initiative is about making EU airspace less fragmented and improving air traffic management in terms of safety, capacity, cost-efficiency and the environment. Its current regulatory framework is based on two legislative packages: SES I (adopted in 2004), which set up the principal legal framework, and SES II (adopted in 2009), designed to tackle substantial air traffic growth, increase safety, and reduce costs and delays and the impact of air traffic on the environment. Nonetheless, European airspace remains fragmented, costly and inefficient. The European Commission presented a revision of the SES in 2013 (the SES 2+ package). While the �Ϸ��վ adopted its first-reading position in March 2014, in December 2014 the Council agreed only a partial general approach, owing to disagreement between the UK and Spain over the application of the text to Gibraltar Airport. Once Brexit removed this obstacle, the Commission amended its initial proposal. Following lengthy negotiations, the Council and �Ϸ��վ negotiating teams reached a provisional agreement on 6 March 2024. The Council approved the agreed text on 26 September 2024. �Ϸ��վ approved the agreed text on 22 October 2024. The final act was signed on 23 October 2024 and it was published in the Official Journal of the EU on 11 November 2024. Fifth edition of a briefing originally drafted by Maria Niestadt.

Briefing - Road safety: Rules on EU-wide driving disqualifications for major traffic offences - 22-10-2024

Mon, 21 Oct 2024 22:00:00 GMT

On 1 March 2023, as part of the road safety package, the European Commission published a legislative proposal to help ensure EU-wide application of driving disqualifications. The proposal calls for increased cooperation, harmonisation of legislation, simplification of information exchange, capacity building, and improved public awareness efforts. In order to prevent impunity due to a lack of legislation, the proposal sets out rules to allow better EU-wide enforcement of driver disqualification decisions when drivers commit major traffic offences outside their own country. In the European �Ϸ��վ, the Committee on Transport and Tourism (TRAN) is responsible for the file (rapporteur: Matteo Ricci, S&D, Italy). The TRAN committee adopted its report on 29 November 2023. On 6 February, the �Ϸ��վ voted in plenary on its first-reading position on the file. On 7 October the TRAN committee voted to start trilogue negotiations. Fourth edition.

Briefing - Improving use of rail infrastructure capacity - 22-10-2024

Mon, 21 Oct 2024 22:00:00 GMT

In July 2023, the European Commission tabled a package of proposals aimed at greening freight transport. One of these proposals focuses on improving the use of rail infrastructure capacity. The proposed text suggests changes to the rules governing the planning and allocation of railway infrastructure capacity, which are currently outlined in Directive 2012/34/EU and Regulation (EU) No 913/2010. The goal of the changes is to enhance the management of rail infrastructure capacity and traffic so as to improve service quality, optimise railway network usage, increase traffic capacity and enhance the transport sector's contribution to decarbonisation. In the European �Ϸ��վ, the file was referred to the Committee on Transport and Tourism (TRAN), which appointed Tilly Metz (Greens/EFA, Luxembourg) as rapporteur. The TRAN committee adopted its report on 4 March 2024. �Ϸ��վ adopted its first-reading position during its March 2024 plenary session. Following the European elections, the TRAN committee voted on 7 October 2024 to start interinstitutional negotiations. Fourth edition.

Briefing - Revision of the Driving Licence Directive - 22-10-2024

Mon, 21 Oct 2024 22:00:00 GMT

On 1 March 2023, the European Commission published its legislative proposal on driving licences – a matter of EU competence – to facilitate the free movement of persons and goods throughout the EU by modernising the driving licence system. This involves future-proofing the driving licence rules, improving road safety and simplifying the rules for those wanting to get a driving licence. The proposal provides for accompanied driving for young learners, zero tolerance for drink-driving, better preparation for micro-mobility, and the introduction of digital driving licences. In the European �Ϸ��վ, the legislative file was assigned to the Committee on Transport and Tourism (TRAN) (rapporteur: Jutta Paulus, Greens/EFA, Germany). The TRAN committee report was adopted on 7 December 2023. On 28 February 2024, �Ϸ��վ voted in plenary on its first reading position on the file. On 7 October, the TRAN committee voted to start trilogue negotiations. Fourth edition, the first was drafted by Karin Smit Jacobs.

Briefing - Improving passenger rights - 10-09-2024

Mon, 09 Sep 2024 22:00:00 GMT

The impact assessment (IA) provides a good information package to underpin the initiative on improving passenger rights. The IA's qualitative and quantitative analysis draws on several data sources, such as an IA supporting study, studies in the policy field, ex-post evaluations and stakeholder consultation; however, the IA supporting study does not appear to be fully referenced, to the detriment of transparency. The IA explains in detail the analytical methods used in a dedicated annex. The IA presents a well-evidenced problem definition and a balanced description of the policy measures and policy options; however, the offer of options is partially rather limited. In the comparison of options, the IA transparently notes that the stakeholders have differing views on the options, and recognises uncertainties in the estimates of hassle cost savings. The analysis would have benefited from some clarification relating to the effectiveness assessment and the scoring of proportionality and subsidiarity. The IA considers that the initiative is relevant to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and, consequently, an SME test was performed. However, SMEs are not differentiated by size classes (micro, small and medium enterprises) in the analysis, and the mitigating measures could have been explained more in detail. It appears that the legislative proposal follows the preferred options of the IA.

Briefing - How does the Recovery and Resilience Facility support urban development? - 03-09-2024

Mon, 02 Sep 2024 22:00:00 GMT

In the European Union (EU), over two thirds of the population reside in urban areas (cities), generating more than 85 % of the EU's gross domestic product (GDP). In some EU Member States, the proportion of the urban population is likely to continue growing, posing additional challenges for cities. These challenges include ensuring affordable housing and job opportunities, as well as providing adequate infrastructure and transportation services. One solution to these challenges is the Urban Agenda for the EU, a framework launched in 2016 that fosters partnerships between the European Commission, Member States, cities and other stakeholders. Its goal is to maximise the growth potential of cities, tackle social challenges, stimulate growth, improve liveability and innovation, and advance the green and digital transitions. The agenda is expected to achieve three main outcomes: better regulation, better knowledge and better funding. Taking into consideration the objectives of the Urban Agenda, this briefing focuses on the specific policy measures built into the Member States' national recovery and resilience plans (NRRPs) that aim to promote reforms and investment in urban development. Each Member State has had to draw up an NRRP in order to access the funds available through the Recovery and Resilience Facility, which is the main spending tool of Next Generation EU (NGEU). NGEU is a recovery instrument intended to assist economies in becoming more resilient post-pandemic, while also supporting the green and digital transitions. Nine national cases of reform or investment measures in urban development were chosen based on the proportion of urban population in each Member State's total population, and were subsequently analysed. The objectives of these measures ranged from expediting the finalisation and implementation of a sustainable urban mobility plan in Malta, to enhancing the affordability of housing in Czechia and ensuring hospitals in Germany are fit for the future. They also aimed to address some of the country-specific recommendations with an urban development dimension that the Council had issued to Member States in 2019 and 2020. �Ϸ��վ supports sustainable urban development policies and is committed to transparency and democratic scrutiny in the NGEU recovery instrument's implementation.

Briefing - Fit for 55 package - 25-07-2024

Thu, 25 Jul 2024 10:28:40 GMT

The 'fit for 55' package of July and December 2021 was designed to realise the European Climate Law objectives: climate neutrality by 2050 and a 55 % reduction of net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030, compared with 1990 levels. It consisted of 13 interlinked proposals to revise existing EU climate and energy laws, and six new legislative proposals. All proposals, except the Energy Taxation Directive, have been adopted by the European �Ϸ��վ and the Council of the EU. The package seeks to accelerate emissions reductions in the sectors covered by the EU emissions trading system (ETS) and those covered by the Effort-sharing Regulation, and to increase carbon removals in the land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) sector. This is an update of a briefing first published in June 2022.

Briefing - Revision of the trans-European transport network guidelines - 12-07-2024

Thu, 11 Jul 2024 22:00:00 GMT

To support its economy, provide mobility for people and goods and ensure the connectivity of all regions, while also limiting negative impacts on climate and environment, the EU has been building a multimodal transport network across its territory: the trans-European transport network (TEN T). TEN-T construction is supported by EU funding, an example of which is the dedicated Connecting Europe Facility programme. In December 2021, the European Commission put forward a proposal on the revised TEN T guidelines, to ensure sustainable connectivity through a reliable and high-quality infrastructure network aligned with the objectives of the European Green Deal. In May 2022, the Commission published an amended proposal, extending transport corridors to Ukraine and Moldova and withdrawing plans that included Russia and Belarus. On 18 December 2023, �Ϸ��վ and the Council reached a provisional agreement resulting from interinstitutional negotiations. The agreed text was voted in �Ϸ��վ on 24 April and in the Council on 13 June 2024. The regulation was published in the Official Journal on 28 June and enters into force on 18 July 2024.

Briefing - Gigabit infrastructure act - 20-06-2024

Wed, 19 Jun 2024 22:00:00 GMT

The EU's digital decade connectivity target is designed to ensure that by 2030 a fixed gigabit network of a very high capacity (1 Gbps) will be covering all EU households and that all populated areas will have 5G. This would enable the deployment of a high-quality digital infrastructure underpinning almost all sectors of a modern and innovative economy, while also ensuring that citizens and business can reap the benefits of the internet of things, machine-to-machine technologies, cloud computing and big data. In April 2024, the EU co-legislators signed the Gigabit Infrastructure Act (GIA), a regulation that reviewed and replaced the Broadband Cost Reduction Directive. The regulation should facilitate and encourage the provision of networks of a very high capacity by promoting the joint use of existing physical infrastructure and enabling a more efficient deployment of new physical infrastructure, so that such networks can be rolled out faster and at a lower cost. The GIA was published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 8 May 2024 and entered into force on 11 May 2024. It will be fully applicable from November 2025. Second edition.

Briefing - Advance passenger information (API) to tackle terrorism and serious crime - 15-04-2024

Sun, 14 Apr 2024 22:00:00 GMT

In December 2022, the European Commission presented two proposals to revise the rules on the collection and transfer of advance passenger information (API) data – data collected by air carriers at check-in and sent to competent authorities in the country of destination prior to take-off. One of the proposals is for a new regulation on the collection and transfer of API data for the prevention, detection, investigation and prosecution of terrorist offences and serious crime. The proposal seeks to align the rules on the collection and transfer of API data with the rules on the processing of passenger name records – data from air travellers' ticket reservations – in order to increase the effectiveness of the fight against serious crime and terrorism in the EU. The proposal provides uniform criteria for the collection and transfer of API data on extra-EU flights and selected intra-EU flights. It builds on the provisions of another proposal for a regulation on the collection and transfer of API data for enhancing and facilitating external border controls. Both proposals rely on the establishment of a centralised router to enable the transmission of API data between air carriers and the competent national authorities dealing with API data. In March 2024, the European �Ϸ��վ and the Council reached a provisional agreement on the proposal. Following the approval of the agreement by the Council and the responsible committee in �Ϸ��վ, the agreed text has been tabled for a vote during the April II part-session. Second edition.
