Sanctions for infringements of this Regulation
1. Without prejudice to the application of Regulation (EU) 2017/625, Member States shall ensure that a natural person having committed or a legal person held liable for an infringement of this Regulation is subject to administrative sanctions in accordance with this Regulation, and national law. Alternatively, Member States may apply criminal sanctions.
2. Member States shall ensure that sanctions applied in accordance with this Regulation and the relevant provisions of national law are proportionate to the seriousness of infringements and adequate in severity to effectively punish and deter further infringements.
3. When determining sanctions, including when fixing the amount of financial penalties in accordance with paragraph 5, Member States shall take into account the nature, gravity and extent of the infringement, including the harm to the welfare of the animals concerned, their number, type, age or vulnerability, the duration of the infringement, its repetition, and the accumulation of simultaneous infringements and if the infringement was committed deliberately or by negligence.
4. The following shall be considered aggravating circumstances:
(a) infringements perpetrated though fraudulent or deceptive practices, or using documents/certificates that are falsified or known to be invalid;
(b) deliberately making false or misleading declarations in journey logs.
5.
In the case of a serious infringement, Member States shall ensure that the serious infringement is punishable by administrative financial penalty of which the minimum shall be at least the value of the consignment. In the case of a repeated serious infringement within a three-year period, Member States shall ensure that the serious infringement is punishable by administrative financial penalties, of which the minimum shall be at least twice the value of the consignment.
Member States may take into account the economic situation of the natural person having committed or legal person held liable for the infringement to ensure the deterrence of sanctions. For that purpose, Member States may, in accordance with national law, apply a system whereby a financial penalty is imposed which is calculated as a percentage of the turnover of the operator being held liable for the infringement.

Allowing the Commission to revise important legal requirements by adopting delegated acts will seriously erode legal certainty for farmers and all operators in the sector. This is not consistent with a long-term investment plan. What is more, since any changes to these provisions would have a considerable bearing on economic, social and environmental matters, the ordinary legislative procedure should apply, with Parliament and the Council playing their full part.

6a. In order to ensure data security and strengthen Europe’s strategic autonomy, transport data shall be stored in data centres that are located in Europe and administered by European entities.

Or. fr

Justification

Extraterritorial legislation devised in the USA, such as the CLOUD Act or FISA, or in China, such as the 2015 Intelligence Act, enable potentially hostile foreign entities to access data that is stored in foreign data centres or processed by foreign companies. In order to ensure that Europeans’ data is confidential and secure, it would therefore seem expedient to prioritise European entities for data storage operations.

However, any stricter national measures shall not apply to transports of live animals that merely transit through that Member State.

According to official data, transportation of live animals is often lengthened merely to avoid transiting through Member States with stricter rules on the way to the country of destination. This increases transport times unnecessarily and hence also increases costs and emissions, with a direct impact on driver and animal welfare.

Justification

For such structural changes the sector needs longer transitional periods in order to adapt; new markets have to be opened, in some cases new barns have to be built to compensate for the higher minimum age of calves (building permits take a long time). Furthermore, article 39(2)(b) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) stipulates that "the need to make the appropriate adjustments gradually" must be taken into account in the formulation of the Common Agricultural Policy. Since the chapter on "Legal Basis" of the current regulation refers to Article 43 ("Formulation and Implementation of the Common Agricultural Policy") of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU), it seems appropriate to also consider this when determining the transition period.
