Or. en
Justification
For the mid-term review, only evaluations that are available in a timely manner can be used, regardless of whether an interim evaluation is among them. Given the potential timing mismatch between the MTR deadline (31 March 2031) and the results of the required interim evaluation (within three years from the start of implementation), it is appropriate to retain the wording used in the 2021-2027 General Regulation for the mid-term review, which refers to 'the main results of relevant evaluations'.

Or. en
Justification
The flexibility amount may be allocated not only to new measures but also to measures already included in the Plan. The current wording is therefore potentially misleading, while paragraph 3 already clarifies that the mid-term review may include new measures. In addition, the deadline should be extended to 30 June 2031 to allow Member States to base the review on the most recent available data and avoid reliance on estimates, thereby ensuring a more effective and proportionate review process.

This amendment is in line with the MFF interim report and reflects the majority position in ENVI that LIFE actions must be financed at least at the current level. A dedicated allocation is necessary to avoid weakening the Union’s only programme specifically focused on environment, climate action and nature protection and to ensure continuity for projects delivering clear EU added value.

Justification
Crisis payments should remain available where farmers face events that could not reasonably have been foreseen or prevented, but they should not replace appropriate prevention and risk management.
