## What the amendments focus on

This interinstitutional-agreement file concerns establishing an Interinstitutional Body for Ethical Standards for Members of EU institutions and advisory bodies. Amendments split between welcoming and rejecting the Agreement, debating the legal basis in the Treaties, the term 'ethics' versus 'standards in public office', the body's lack of own-initiative investigation and sanction powers, the role of independent experts, the Council's partial participation, and the 'Qatargate' incident.
