Decision
The European Parliament adopted a resolution (document B10-0321/2025, adopted text P10_TA(2025)0149) concerning Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1093 of 22 May 2025 under procedure 2025/2739(RSP).
What Changes
The resolution considers the implementing regulation to exceed the Commission’s implementing powers and calls on the Commission to repeal Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1093 and to revise the country benchmarking system so it is based on up-to-date data, allows for regional differentiation and includes transparent weighting of risk indicators. It urges the Commission to establish clear, time-bound and transparent procedures for regular reassessment of risk categorisation, to engage producing countries and stakeholders in inclusive processes, and to deploy complementary measures such as forest partnerships, technical assistance and fair trade incentives.
Who Is Affected
The resolution directly concerns the Commission, countries producing relevant commodities, Member States and stakeholders involved in commodity supply chains and forest governance.
