Social Climate Fund put to the vote in EMPL-ENVI

The Social Climate Fund (SCF) report, a joint report by EMPL and ENVI (Rapp. Casa and De Lange), was put to the vote on Wednesday 18 May. The proposal to set up the SCF aims at offsetting the potential social impacts of the increased Union climate ambition. The file is linked to the file on the extension of the Emission Trading System to buildings and road-transport. The amendments were voted on Wednesday in the morning and the final vote took place in the afternoon.
