Reden

The next item is the debate on the Council and Commission statements on the Savings and Investments Union: time to accelerate the process to deepen market integration (2026/2646(RSP)).

The next item is the debate on the Commission statement on building Europe's clean, independent and secure energy following the 2026 North Sea Summit (2026/2614(RSP)).

I have an announcement. The EPP and ECR groups have notified the President of decisions relating to changes to appointments within committees. These decisions will be set out in the minutes of today's sitting and take effect on the date of this announcement.

Thank you very much and I apologise to those colleagues who could not speak now. (Inaudible comments from a number of Members) I know that many of you have been here the whole debate. We are aware and we did not have enough time to give the floor to all of you. We have a celebration at 12:00 that we need to stick to. We also have other debates. So I do apologise. It doesn't help shouting, I have to say. We took a common decision about giving the floor to those of you who asked for the floor first. So it's based on time – when you push the button. We do not have more time, so I will not be able to give more of you speaking time in the catch-the-eye. But of course, on a point of order – if you can refer to a specific paragraph – I will give you the floor. I will give the floor to Costas Mavrides on a point of order.

The next item is the debate on the report by Stefano Bonaccini, on behalf of the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development, on the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on cooperation among enforcement authorities responsible for the enforcement of Directive (EU) 2019/633 on unfair trading practices in business-to-business relationships in the agricultural and food supply chain (COM(2024)0576 – C10‑0208/2024 – 2024/0318(COD)) (A10-0153/2025).

The EPP Group has notified the President of a decision relating to changes to appointments within committees. This decision will be set out in the minutes of today's sitting and takes effect on the date of this announcement.

Nach der Tagesordnung folgt die Aussprache über die Erklärung der Kommission zum Internationalen Tag der Bildung zur Bekämpfung von Ungleichheiten beim Zugang zu Bildung (2026/2608(RSP)).

Vielen Dank, Herr Kommissar. Ich werde Sie schon jetzt warnen, denn wir stehen unter Zeitdruck, wir haben eine formelle Sitzung nach dieser Debatte und deshalb haben wir nicht so viel Zeit. Deshalb bitte ich Sie in erster Linie, sich an Ihre Redezeit zu halten. Und zweitens haben Sie während des nächsten Redners die Möglichkeit, zu bitten, unter "Catch-the-eye" zu sprechen. Aber ich habe schon viel zu viele und ich werde es nach dem ersten Redner schließen. Und ich werde Sie nur wissen lassen, dass nicht jeder in der Lage sein wird, auch während des Catch-the-eye zu sprechen.

Nach der Tagesordnung folgt die Aussprache über die Erklärung der Kommission zum Aufbau einer stärkeren europäischen Verteidigung angesichts eines zunehmend volatilen internationalen Umfelds (2026/2600(RSP)).
