Closure of procedure for requests for the waiver and defence of Members’ parliamentary immunity

The Committee on Legal Affairs informed the President that the Public Prosecutor’s Office of the Court of First Instance in Thessaloniki, Greece, has closed the case against Emmanouil Fragkos for which the waiver of Emmanouil Fragkos’ parliamentary immunity had been requested, as announced in plenary on 13 September 2021. This procedure for waiver of immunity has therefore been completed. The Committee also informed the President that the Committee has concluded that Article 8 of Protocol No 7 on privileges and immunities in the European Union does not apply to the request for protection of the privileges and immunities of Nikos Androulakis announced at the plenary session of 21 November 2022. Following the resignation of Nikos Androulakis as a Member of the European Parliament with effect from 3 May 2023, he no longer enjoys the immunity provided for in Article 9 of Protocol No 7, which is limited to the duration of the mandate of the Member of the European Parliament. Therefore, the proceedings concerning this request for the protection of its privileges and immunities are terminated.

Sexual harassment in the EU and MeToo evaluation (debate)

Mr President, two years ago we were standing here and talking exactly about the same topic, talking about MeToo in the European Union institutions. Since then, we have launched two internal procedures in the European Parliament, thanks to the perseverance of a few people who I really would like to applaud for their efforts. In fact, it was actually five years, and not only two, since MeToo was first debated in this chamber. So you see, the resistance is still big from some within this House, from some people who are in power positions and do not see a need for changing the rules. So let me say to all those blocking people, this is about respect. Anyone can be affected by harassment. We all should be protected in cases of harassment. But even more so, we should be able to work without such a violation of our human rights. We all have a right to a safe and healthy workplace. We, the European Parliament, should be an example for other institutions with our anti-harassment measures as well as gender action plans. It’s high time we really treat each other respectfully and it’s high time we eradicate any form of harassment and have actions follow our often-repeated words.

Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence (debate)

Mr President, Commissioner and honourable Members who have worked so hard on this important and very important dossier. Our EU Supply Chain Act is a unique opportunity. It is a chance that we will give companies clear rules on what we expect from them, in a framework that is feasible for them. It is the chance that we take responsibility from consumers when they are in the supermarket or in the store and do not know which product they can buy with a clear conscience. It is a unique opportunity to ensure that every product on our EU internal market is manufactured in compliance with human and environmental rights. The supply chain law is about transparency, it is about the inclusion of trade unions and NGOs, it is about respect for human and social rights, it is about the protection of the environment. And we can't afford to miss all this, this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Externalising asylum applications and making funding to third countries conditional on the implementation of return agreements (topical debate)

Before giving the floor to the next Member, Mrs Lena Düpont, I would like to remind everyone in the House once again of our own rules, which we have set ourselves, namely that the debate should be based on dignity and respect, and I would like to point this out now. At the same time, the fact that the spokespersons for the political groups have now spoken a little longer. I'm just announcing that I'm going to do the same thing with everyone and then withdraw the word 10 seconds after the time has passed. All you need to know is that you already know.

The next item on the agenda was the debate on a topical topic (Rule 162) – Externalisation of asylum applications and linking financial assistance to third countries with the implementation of return agreements (2023/2690(RSP)). I would like to draw Members' attention to the fact that there are no spontaneous interventions in this debate and that no ‘blue cards’ are accepted either.
