2020/0053(COD)·9th term·AGRI·COD - Ordinary legislative procedure (ex-codecision procedure)·CompletedProcedure completed
Subjects: Marketing and trade of agricultural products and livestock · Cereals, rice
Rapporteur (the Member appointed to lead Parliament's work on this text): VRECIONOVÁ Veronika (ECR)
Summary

The dossier concerns the equivalence of field inspections on cereal seed-producing crops and of cereal seed produced in Ukraine. Amendments reject the Commission proposal and call for an impact assessment before any decision, citing the absence of one, risks of economic imbalances and unfair competition on the Union seed market, phytosanitary and social conditions, food sovereignty, and checks that Ukrainian seed complies with Union requirements.

3 roll-call votes

In plenary, Parliament usually votes in steps: first on amendments to the text (sometimes split into parts, so Members can accept one half of a sentence and reject the other), then on the text as a whole. The “main vote” is the one that adopts or rejects the text itself. Each vote below shows exactly which step it was. How voting works →
