12. Order of business

The final draft agenda for the plenary sittings of May I 2022 (PE 732.006/PDOJ) had been made available to Members in accordance with Rule 157(3).

The President informed the House that she had received a request for urgent procedure from the ENVI Committee (Rule 163) on the following legislative file:

- Transitional rules for the packaging and labelling of veterinary medicinal products (COM(2022)0076 - C9-0054/2022- 2022/0053(COD)).

The vote on the request would take place the following day, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 at 14.00.

With the agreement of the political groups, the President proposed the following changes:

Tuesday

As the President of the European Council would not be present in Strasbourg, Question Time with the President of the European Council (Item 56 on the final draft agenda) would not take place.

Wednesday

The vote on the report by Christophe Hansen on ‘Distortive foreign subsidies’ (A9-0135/2022) (Item 116 on the final draft agenda) scheduled for Thursday would be brought forward to voting time on Wednesday. The debate originally scheduled for Wednesday would be removed from the agenda.

The tabling deadlines would therefore be amended as follows:
- amendments or rejection: Tuesday, 3 May 2022 at noon;
- requests for separate and split votes: Tuesday, 3 May 2022 at 19.00.

Thursday

As the Council could not attend the debate on the Council and Commission statements on ‘State of play of the EU-Moldova cooperation’ (Item 123 on the final draft agenda), the debate would now be a Commission statement.

The House agreed to the changes.

The President had also received the following requests for changes under Rule 158:

Wednesday

Request from the PPE Group to include a Commission statement on a call for a legislative proposal on an EU lend-lease regulation as the second item on the afternoon’s agenda. Motions for resolutions would be tabled to wind up the debate, with these being put to the vote on Thursday, 5 May 2022.

The following spoke: Sven Simon, who moved the request on behalf of the PPE Group, and Nathalie Loiseau, against the request.

Parliament rejected the request by roll-call vote (89 in favour, 193 against, 7 abstentions).

Request from the S&D Group to wind up the debate entitled ‘The follow up of the Conference on the Future of Europe’ (Item 120 on the final draft agenda) with the tabling of motions for resolutions, which would be put to the vote on Wednesday, 4 May 2022.

The following spoke: Iratxe García Pérez, who moved the request on behalf of the S&D Group, and Stéphane Séjourné.

Parliament approved the request.

The following deadlines had been set:
- Motions for resolutions: Monday, 2 May 2022 at 19.00
- Amendments to motions for resolutions, and joint motions for resolutions: Tuesday, 3 May 2022 at noon
- Amendments to joint motions for resolutions: Tuesday, 3 May 2022 at 13.00
- Requests for separate and split votes: Tuesday, 3 May 2022 at 19.00

Request from The Left Group to include Council and Commission statements on ‘The resignation of the Executive Director of Frontex in the light of the OLAF inquiry’ as the fourth item on the agenda, after the Council and Commission statements on ‘Threats to stability, security and democracy in Western and Sahelian Africa’ (Item 122 on the final draft agenda).

The following spoke: Cornelia Ernst, who moved the request on behalf of The Left Group, and Petri Sarvamaa, against the request.

Parliament rejected the request by roll-call vote (140 in favour, 154 against, 1 abstentions).

The order of business was thus established.
