# 2016 discharge: Bio-based Industries Joint Undertaking - BBI Joint Undertaking

European Parliament procedure 2017/2183(DEC) (DEC - Discharge procedure, 8th term, committee CONT). Stage: Procedure completed. 5 committee amendments tabled by 7 Members between 2018-03-01 and 2018-03-01.

## What the amendments focus on

The dossier concerns the 2016 discharge for the Bio-based Industries Joint Undertaking. The amendments postpone the decision on granting the Executive Director discharge for the financial year, expressing concern that industry members reported only a small share of their expected in-kind contributions to operational activities and noting the gap between industry and Union contributions; they call for the Joint Undertaking's involvement in the Horizon 2020 mid-term review on simplification.
