EU-Solomon Islands Agreement on the short-stay visa waiver (A8-0336/2016 - Mariya Gabriel)

Therese Comodini Cachia (PPE), in writing. ‒ The agreement provides for visa-free travel for citizens of the European Union and citizens of the Solomon Islands when travelling to the territory of the other contracting party for a maximum period of 90 days in any 180-day period.

The visa waiver agreement could have positive effects by simplifying travel for businesspeople, facilitating investment and boosting tourism.

I appeal, however, for caution, as the rapporteur does, since this practice is liable to reduce Parliament’s room for manoeuvre and is problematic because Parliament is not fully informed about the progress of bilateral negotiations.
