Decision
On 2 April 2025 in Strasbourg the Parliament adopted a motion for a non-legislative resolution (P10_TA(2025)0054; document A10-0040/2025) from the Committee on Fisheries, rapporteur Eric Sargiacomo, concerning the draft Council decision to conclude, on behalf of the European Union, the Implementing Protocol (2024–2029) to the Fisheries Partnership Agreement with the Republic of Guinea-Bissau; the motion was adopted by a majority of the votes cast.
What Changes
The adopted resolution records Parliament's formal position on the draft Council decision to conclude the 2024–2029 Implementing Protocol and constitutes a non-legislative stance adopted in plenary; it therefore represents Parliament’s input into the procedural steps toward concluding that protocol.
Who Is Affected
The outcome directly concerns the European Union and the Republic of Guinea-Bissau and pertains to the fisheries sector covered by the partnership agreement.
