Amendment wording

Tabled by César Luena

Added: 4a. The adjustment of minimum Union rates pursuant to this Article shall not be subject to any upper limit. Any cap on the periodic adjustment would risk reproducing the structural erosion of minimum rates that characterised the period of application of Directive 2011/64/EU, contrary to the public health and internal market objectives of this Directive.
