What Beata spoke about.

The Constitution is the highest law of the Republic of Poland. This is what Article 8 of the first chapter of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland says. According to the European Parliament, which again wrongly attacks Poland, is compliance with the most important Polish law a violation of the rule of law? Such reasoning is a dangerous precedent that can lead to the weakening of the communit

Madam President, I'm sorry. I would like to thank the rapporteur, Mr René Repasi, for the joint work we have done in Parliament, for the successful negotiations during the trilogues. The result of this cooperation is a text that provides optimal benefits for consumers and minimal burdens for traders. The new rules mean easier and more accessible repairs for all consumers, which in turn will extend

Mr President, thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, Unfortunately, today's debate confirms that some MEPs in this Chamber do not understand the seriousness of the current situation in the agricultural sector. I would like to remind those of you who missed it that for several weeks there have been massive protests on the streets of European cities by farmers against further unrealistic environ

Mr President, thank you very much. The aim and objectives of the European Media Freedom Act are unquestionably correct. However, the proposed solutions are not legally sound and do not guarantee media independence. Despite the declaration of full sovereignty of the EU institutions to safeguard media freedom, the European Commission will have a significant influence on the newly established supervi

Mr President, thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, this directive is another attempt to impose, under the guise of the fight against climate change, legislation that burdens us with enormous costs, which will ultimately be borne by ordinary citizens. This directive is a Brussels dictatorship that does not take into account the real opportunities and needs of citizens. The requirement to reno

Mr President, thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, I welcome the initiative to promote a more circular economy and fight ecumenism. However, there are specific aspects of the proposed directive which, in my view, are not supported by a meaningful analysis. In particular, I would like to highlight my concerns about the lack of clarity in the definitions and rules for environmental claims. Uns

Mr President, thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, The regulation we are talking about introduces significant changes aimed at increasing the level of transparency of political advertising. I am convinced that this initiative has a number of benefits, in particular by providing citizens with access to information on the financing of advertisements and the sponsors behind them. However, I hav

Mr President, thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, There is no room for censorship in a free Europe. I am deeply concerned about the tendency to impose restrictions on freedom of expression under the guise of combating illegal content online. The concept of hate speech has its roots in totalitarian regimes, as in the Soviet Union, where it served as a tool for silencing political opposition.

Mr President, thank you very much. In recent years, greenwashing has become a serious problem that may grow in the name of the European Union pushing for the Green Deal. What, in practice, is the empowerment of consumers in this Directive? First of all, providing clear and reliable information about products, and thus the opportunity to make a better choice when shopping for them. This is the end

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, During the debates in this room, I often hear statements about building a common market. Today is a chance to see if these words have real meaning. The Geo-blocking Regulation is the essence of removing unfair barriers for consumers and traders in the single market. I would like to thank the IMCO co-rapporteurs for their constructive work. Examples

Thank you, Mr President! Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. I see the need to update the current rules in order to be able to fight effectively against excess packaging. The direction that has been taken is the right one, but the proposed pace of legislative change, together with over-ambitious targets, makes it, in my view, simply unfeasible. I would like to draw your attention to the fact that the dra

Madam President, I'm sorry. I thank the rapporteur for working together on this very important report, which will have a direct impact on the lives of every citizen of the European Union. Imagine that our mobile phone, without which it is difficult to function today, ceases to work as a result of a minor malfunction. Instead of throwing it away and buying a new one, we should be able to repair it,

Madam President, I'm sorry. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, In accordance with the provisions of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, all actions concerning children should always be guided by their highest interests. In Poland in recent years, social policy has been the area in which the most dynamic changes have taken place, and the family has been at the heart of state poli

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, Keeping children safe online is a priority for all of us, or at least it should be. In order to do this, it is necessary to put in place specific educational measures and programmes aimed not only at children, but also at their teachers, parents and carers. Approximately one in three internet users is a child who uses it at a very young age. This o

Madam President, I'm sorry. Access to decent housing is a fundamental right of every human being. We are aware that the number of housing in Europe is insufficient, that there is a housing crisis and that a significant proportion of existing housing remains unsuited to the needs of an ageing population. Therefore, it is necessary not only to increase the number of premises, but also to modernize t

Madam President, I'm sorry. I have no doubt that the deployment of intelligent transport systems is a key action to achieve connected and automated multimedia mobility. This will help transform the European transport system to create efficient, safe, sustainable, smart and resilient mobility. It is clear that the use of intelligent transport systems brings many benefits, such as improved safety, r

Ladies and Gentlemen, with regard to the economic and, consequently, social impact of this Regulation, the optimal scenario is that the measures provided for therein will not have to be applied, as the mere possibility of using them will deter third countries from making any attempt at economic coercion. Under this option, the Regulation would have unequivocal positive economic consequences, and t

Madam President, I'm sorry. I am fully aware that asbestos is still a leading cause of cancer and occupational deaths, and its health effects are evident even years after exposure. I am in favour of improving the standards for the protection of workers from asbestos by improving the notification system, eliminating loopholes and introducing new tools to combat the risks of asbestos. Strengthening

Ladies and Gentlemen, Nearly a third of Europeans say they are currently in a precarious financial and material situation. This is according to the European Barometer on Poverty and Economic Uncertainty carried out this year. Concerns about the future are enormous. 48% of our citizens, almost half of them, see the risk that they will find themselves in a precarious financial situation in the next

Mr President, thank you very much. In April this year, Poland unilaterally imposed an embargo on grain from Ukraine to protect our farmers. Then the EU decided to introduce a restriction on the import of grain to Poland. Now we have built a coalition of front-line countries, which is jointly fighting for the extension of the ban after September 15. Today we see that a new friend of Donald Tusk cam

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, Working in the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection, I see the need for a robust mechanism for information exchange and coordination between countries in the Single Market in crisis situations. But in the case of this regulation, I get the impression that you are trying to achieve the right goals by the wrong means. As an exampl

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Instead of focusing on external threats that put EU countries and officials at risk, the PEGA Committee prefers to attack those that the EU considers to be insufficiently law-abiding, making them beating boys. It is worth emphasizing that the Pegasus software is used by most countries of the European Union, although for the public the

Madam President, I'm sorry. We are witnessing a real revolution. The 21st century is undoubtedly the age of data. Artificial intelligence is already part of our daily lives, but it has much more possibilities than what we have seen so far. In addition to the benefits, technology also carries risks that we should minimise by putting in place an effective legislative framework that guarantees the sa

Madam President, I'm sorry. The European Union needs large transport investments. Every effort should therefore be made to bridge the gap between the infrastructures of the old and new Member States. Only in this way will we avoid the concept of building a two-speed Europe, which I categorically oppose. Our common goal should be harmonious development and a well-functioning single market. This can

Mr President, thank you very much. Unfortunately, Parliament has forced the Council to include in the e-evidence package a reference to the Article 7 procedure of the Treaty on European Union. It is a political instrument, because it cannot be called only a legal instrument. It introduces double standards for some Member States and this can be clearly seen in the example of countries such as Polan
