For decades, the posting of workers has been a prominent topic of the public and political debate.

However, in the last few years, several factors have intensified the debate. Firstly, an increase in the number of postings, which has impacted heavily in specific labourintensive sectors. Secondly, there has been a growth in abusive and fraudulent practices such as letter-box companies or bogus self-employment. Thirdly, in view of the social policy provisions introduced into the European Treaties since the Lisbon Treaty revision, it is questionable whether the 1996 Posting of Workers Directive (PWD) provides a sufficient legal instrument for ensuring a level-playing field for free cross-border service provision whilst at the same time delivering a sufficient foundation for the social protection of workers. Fourthly, numerous rulings of the Court of Justice of the European Union have raised as yet unsolved questions for interpreting the 1996 Directive.

Posted workers - 8th parliamentary term

Jean-Claude Juncker, President of the European Commission, comes to Parliament on 14 September to review the year and announce new initiatives in a debate with MEPs.

The State of the European Union - SOTEU - is an annual speech and debate during which MEPs review what the European Commission has done over the past year as well as to assess its objectives for the year to come.

EU27 leaders meet to endorse the Brexit withdrawal agreement on Sunday 25 November 2018.

The summit was called by Donald Tusk, President of the European Council, on 15 November 2018, after his meeting with EU chief negotiator Michel Barnier, who presented to him the draft text as agreed with the UK at the level of the negotiators.

Leaders are also expected to approve a political declaration on future EU-UK relations that will accompany and be referred to in the withdrawal agreement. The Commission intends to agree with the UK a final draft for this declaration, building on the outline agreed by the negotiators on both sides.

Special meeting of the European Council on article 50, 25/11/2018

The Conference on the Future of Europe, organised by Parliament, Council and Commission, is among Commission President von der Leyen’s most prominent commitments.

The Conference was expected to start in May 2020 and run for two years, but has been delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It will need to be launched as soon as possible in order for effective reforms to be implemented based on its outcome. It should be built on citizen participation involving a cross-section of society, and be free to define the future shape and form of the EU.

Future of Europe (2019 - 2020)

Leo VARADKAR, Irish Prime Minister, is the first EU leader to debate the future of Europe with MEPs and Jean-Claude Juncker, President of the EC, on Wednesday morning.

&nbsp;

The Europeans want the EU to change. This is why the European Parliament is taking the leadership over a reform of the EU.

Parliament set out its vision for the future of Europe in three resolutions voted in plenary session on 16 February 2017. MEPs suggested, among other things:

<ul>
	<li>turning the Council of Ministers into a genuine second legislative chamber, and its configurations into preparatory bodies similar to Parliament’s committees,</li>
	<li>appointing an EU finance minister and giving the EU Commission the power to formulate and give effect to a common EU economic policy, backed up by a euro-area budget, and</li>
	<li>creating a fiscal capacity consisting of the European Stability Mechanism (ESM) and specific additional budgetary capacity for the euro area, funded by its members as a part of the EU budget.</li>
</ul>

Debate on the Future of Europe with Leo VARADKAR, Irish Prime Minister

Multiple studies have measured the effects of the single market on the EU economy. Quantifications of the benefits vary, but are overwhelmingly positive. A 2019 study suggested that EU citizens' per capita welfare gains from the single market amount to €840 annually. Also in 2019, the European Commission estimated that, mainly due to the removal of tariff and non-tariff barriers to trade, EU GDP is 8-9% higher than if the single market did not exist.

Single market - 8th parliamentary term

The EU is under growing pressure from disinformation by countries, non-state actors and terrorist groups which promote violence and use pseudo-news agencies and internet trolls to challenge democratic values and divide Europe.

The EU has been increasingly hit by destabilising messagesamounting – in different forms and to different degrees – to coherent hostile ‘strategic communications’ campaigns, or the processes of infusing communications activities with an agenda or plan to impact the behaviour of a target audience.

Anti-EU propaganda - 8th Parliamentary term

This “Question Time” gives MEPs the possibility to question the Commission on specific topical issues decided upon by the Conference of Presidents. Each MEP has one minute to ask their question, followed by an answer of up to two minutes and a possible follow-up question, no longer than 30 seconds, and a second answer by the Commissioner of up to two minutes.

Question Time with the Commission may be held at each part-session for a duration of up to 90 minutes on one or more specific horizontal themes: the topics/questions are sent to the EC the week before the plenary session.

Question time

Recent tests on branded food in three 'new' EU Member States have shown that the taste and composition of these products, sold under the same name and in the same packaging, sometimes differ from the 'same' products sold in neighbouring 'old' Member States.

Companies are known to change the composition of their branded products to adjust to local taste, local ingredients, divergent purchasing power, etc. EU legislation does not consider this to be misleading, as long as the products are safe, properly labelled and not falsely advertised as being identical to those sold in another Member State.

Dual quality of products - 8th parliamentary term

Xavier Bettel, Luxembourgish Prime Minister, is the sixth EU leader to debate the future of Europe with MEPs and Jean-Claude Juncker, President of the EC, on Wednesday morning.

The EU4Health programme is a comprehensive response to the political demand to reflect the lessons learned from both the coronavirus crisis and previous health programmes.

On 28 May 2020, the European Commission adopted a proposal for a regulation on the establishment of a programmefor the Union's action in the field of health for the 2021-2027 period (EU4Health programme). It was announced as part of the Next Generation EU recovery instrument, aimed at countering the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

EU4Health is intended to boost the EU's preparedness for major cross-border health threats and improve health systems' resilience. This should enable the EU to face not only future epidemics, but also long-term challenges such as an ageing population and inequalities in health.

Threats to bee health and market competition make the economic viability of apiculture a critical matter.

Profitability is crucial for the sustainability of the apiculture sector. Like other agricultural producers, beekeepers must cope with production and market challenges. When it comes to production, various factors can affect productivity in a eekeeping enterprise. Outbreaks of animal diseases, exposure to chemicals, losses in plant diversity, adverse climatic conditions or the deterioration of bees' natural habitats owing to natural or human factors can all threaten the productive capacity of beehives. These factors can also be among the causes of the bee health problems and high bee mortality rates registered in recent decades.

EU apiculture sector

During their meeting on 30-31 May 2022, EU leaders discussed continued EU support to Ukraine, particularly humanitarian, financial, material and political support. The leaders were joined by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy via video conference for a discussion at the beginning of the summit. 
The European Council is committed to intensify pressure on Russia and Belarus to thwart Russia’s war against Ukraine. The European Council called on all countries to align with EU sanctions. 
The  leaders agreed that the sixth package of sanctions against Russia will cover crude oil, as well as petroleum products, delivered from Russia into Member States, with a temporary exception for crude oil delivered by pipeline. On the second day of the summit, EU leaders discussed energy, defence and food security.

Special meeting of the European Council, 30-31 May 2022

The plenary of the EP&nbsp;assessed with Presidents Michel and von der Leyen the outcome of the 15 December European Council. The situation in Ukraine and the EU aid to the country, the&nbsp;inflation,&nbsp;energy crisis, as well as relations with the US and the southern neighbourhood are among the main topics discussed.

EU heads of state and&nbsp;government met in Brussels to discuss the most pressing policy priorities for the European Union on 15 December 2022.&nbsp;The European Council focused&nbsp;on the situation in Ukraine, energy policy and the economy, and security and defence.

In a debate with Council and Commission ahead of the&nbsp;EU summit, MEPs demanded lower energy prices and allowing Bulgaria and Romania to join the Schengen area.

Het Parlement gaat stemmen over nieuwe regels om consumenten in de EU te beschermen en om de waterschaarste te verlichten door terugwinning van water. Wijzigingen in een richtlijn over motorrijtuigenverzekering beschermen de rechten van verkeersslachtoffers. De Parlementsleden stemmen over een plan om producten en diensten beter toegankelijk te maken voor mensen met een handicap, en stemmen over een overeenkomst voor vrije handel met Singapore die het merendeel van tarieven zal afschaffen.

Consumentenbescherming en toegankelijkheid: op de agenda in Brussel

Nadat de brexitovereenkomst een historische nederlaag leed in het Britse Lagerhuis, kwam het Parlement bijeen om de stand van zaken rond de brexit te bespreken. De parlementsleden stemden over wijzigingen in het Europees Sociaal Fonds en het Europees fonds voor de aanpassing aan de globalisering, en ze keurden het nieuwe InvestEU-investeringsprogramma goed. Het Parlement stemde ook voor een verbetering van de EU-goedkeuringsprocedure rond pesticiden.

Van brexit tot pesticiden: 5 cijfers uit Straatsburg

Het Parlement hield een minuut stilte als eerbetoon aan de slachtoffers van de aanslag in Straatsburg. De leden keurden ook de begroting voor het komende jaar goed en sloten de grootste bilaterale handelsovereenkomst af die ooit door de EU is onderhandeld. De Oekraïense cineast Oleg Sentsov kreeg de Sakharov-prijs 2018 voor vrijheid van denken. De leden stemden over de invoer van humanitaire visa, die een veilige toegang van asielzoekers tot Europa moeten garanderen.

Van aanslag Straatsburg tot Sakharov-prijs: 5 cijfers uit Straatsburg

Oleg Sentsov, een Oekraïense cineast en activist, is de laureaat van de Sakharov-prijs 2018 voor de vrijheid van denken. De prijs, genoemd naar de sovjet-natuurkundige en politiek dissident Andrei Sakharov, wordt elk jaar uitgereikt door het Europees Parlement.

Oleg Sentsov krijgt Sakharov-prijs 2018

Het Europees Parlement wil dat het EU-solidariteitsprogramma uitgebreid wordt, zodat arbeiders die ontslagen worden wegens de technologische vooruitgang of om ecologische of economische redenen worden geholpen. De nieuwe steun moet ze helpen om toegang te krijgen tot opleidingen en om hun eigen bedrijf op te starten.

Globaliseringfonds: meer hulp na ontslag

Het Parlement houdt zijn 14e debat over de toekomst van Europa, deze keer met de Cypriotische president Nicos Anastasiades. De Sakharov-prijs wordt toegekend aan de gevangengezette cineast Oleg Sentsov, en het Parlement stemt over striktere regels op carcinogene stoffen op het werk.

Op de agenda in Straatsburg: van de Sakharov-prijs tot carcinogene stoffen op het werk

Met de Europese verkiezingen in mei wacht het Parlement een druk jaar. De debatten over de 'Toekomst van Europa' worden voortgezet en zijn relevanter dan ooit tevoren nu het VK de EU verlaat. Handelsovereenkomsten, zelfrijdende auto's en bescherming van klokkenluiders – ze staan allemaal op de agenda in 2019!

Op de agenda in 2019

De EU heeft tienduizenden projecten in heel Europa gesteund via het Europees Sociaal Fonds. Eén van die projecten is een sociaal verantwoord hotel in Polen, dat kansarme jongeren een handje helpt bij hun toegang tot de arbeidswereld. Het Parlement wil ervoor zorgen dat het ESF zulke projecten blijft steunen.

ESF+: Een gestroomlijnd Europees Sociaal Fonds

Het Parlement heeft acht stoffen toegevoegd aan de lijst van carcinogene en mutagene stoffen die op arbeidsplaatsen worden gebruikt en waarvoor grenswaarden werden vastgelegd. De Europarlementsleden zijn in het bijzonder bezorgd over dieseluitlaatgassen. Zij willen ervoor zorgen dat de Europese werknemers beter worden beschermd.

Kankerverwekkende stoffen op het werk: een betere bescherming

Op 3 december worden nieuwe regels van kracht die handelaars verplichten om shoppende klanten dezelfde toegang tot goederen en diensten te verschaffen, waar ze zich ook bevinden in de EU. Aan de praktijk, die geoblocking wordt genoemd, komt in de EU een eind.

De leden gingen het debat aan met de Duitse bondskanselier Angela Merkel over de toekomst van Europa en stemden over nieuwe regels voor telecom en het beperken van de uitstoot van broeikasgassen.

Van de EU-begroting tot telecomregels: 5 cijfers uit Straatsburg

De LUX-filmprijs 2018 is uitgereikt aan Benedikt Erlingsson, regisseur van ‘Woman at War’ – een IJslands drama dat zich niet in een hokje laat plaatsen en milieukwesties, de kracht van vrouwen en het moederschap behandelt. De LUX-filmprijs brengt Europese films onder de aandacht waarin kwesties die het hart van het Europese debat raken aan bod komen.

Winnaar LUX-prijs 2018 ‘Woman at War’: “Vrouwen redden de wereld”

Het Parlement stemt over nieuwe maatregelen voor energie-efficiëntie, regels om de kosten van telefoongesprekken in Europa te doen dalen, en kondigt de winnaar aan van de Lux-filmprijs 2018. Ook op de agenda: de toekomst van Europa met de Duitse kanselier Angela Merkel en nieuwe regels voor de bescherming van treinreizigers.

Op de agenda in Straatsburg: van energie-efficiëntie tot de Lux-filmprijs

Per jaar reizen passagiers ongeveer 500 miljard kilometer over het Europese spoorwegnet. Europarlementariërs hebben hun steun uitgesproken voor strengere regels om hun rechten te beschermen, zoals dat ook gebeurt voor vliegtuigpassagiers.

Europarlementariërs steunen betere rechten voor treinreizigers
