   Presentada por Virginie Joron, Julien Sanchez, Nikola Bartůšek · PfE

   Añadido: 68a. Expresses deep concern over the case of former Director-General of DG MOVE, Henrik Hololei, who, according to media reports, was found by OLAF to have accepted flights and gifts from Qatar while leading negotiations on the EU-Qatar air transport agreement and disclosed confidential information in return; regrets that, despite OLAF forwarding its findings to the President of the Commission in July 2024, neither the European Public Prosecutor’s Office (EPPO) nor the competent Belgian authorities seem to have taken up this matter; calls for an investigation into why this report had apparently not been shared with the relevant prosecutorial authorities by the Commission;
