Part 29 of 30: LETTER OF THE COMMITTEE ON LEGAL AFFAIRS

Change 4

Added:LETTER OF THE COMMITTEE ON LEGAL AFFAIRS

Added:Mr CristianSilviu Buşoi

Added:Chair

Added:Committee on Industry, Research and Energy

Added:BRUSSELS

Added:Subject: Opinion on a Proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on the internal markets for renewable and natural gases and for hydrogen (recast) (COM(2021)0804 – C90470/2021 – 2021/0424(COD))

Added:Dear Mr Chair,

Added:The Committee on Legal Affairs has examined the proposal referred to above pursuant to Rule 110 on recasting of Parliament's Rules of Procedure.

Added:Paragraph 3 of that Rule reads as follows:

Added:“If the committee responsible for legal affairs considers that the proposal does not entail any substantive changes other than those identified as such in the proposal, it shall inform the committee responsible for the subject matter thereof.

Added:In such a case, over and above the conditions laid down in Rules 180 and 181, amendments shall be admissible within the committee responsible for the subject-matter only if they concern those parts of the proposal which contain changes.

Added:However, amendments to parts of the proposal which remain unchanged may, by way of exception and on a case-by-case basis, be accepted by the Chair of the committee responsible for the subject matter if he or she considers that this is necessary for pressing reasons relating to the internal logic of the text or because the amendments are inextricably linked to other admissible amendments. Such reasons must be stated in a written justification to the amendments.”

Added:Following the here attached opinion of the Consultative Working Party of the Legal Services of the Parliament, the Council and the Commission, which has examined the recast proposal, and in keeping with the recommendations of the Rapporteur, the Committee on Legal Affairs considers that the proposal in question does not include any substantive changes other than those identified as such and that, as regards the codification of the unchanged provisions of the earlier act with those substantive amendments, the proposal contains a straightforward codification of the existing text, without any change in its substance.

Added:In conclusion, at its extraordinary meeting of 31 January 2023, the Committee on Legal Affairs unanimously decided to recommend that the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy (ITRE), as the committee responsible, proceed to examine the above proposal in accordance with Rule 110.

Added:Yours sincerely,

Added:Adrián Vázquez Lázara
