Gradual roll-out of Eudamed, information obligation in case of interruption of supply and the transitional provisions for certain in vitro diagnostic medical devices (C9-0010/2024)

25-04-2024

I supported this Commission proposal to amend the ‘Medical Devices Regulation’ (MDR) and the ‘In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices Regulation’ (IVDR) so that the rollout of the European database on medical devices (EUDAMED) would be extended, after concerns were raised that the database would not be ready on time.

Interinstitutional Body for Ethical Standards (A9-0181/2024 - Daniel Freund)

25-04-2024

I voted in favour of establishing this body, which sets a single framework for cooperation on common ethical standards.
It is important that in future, the remit of the body is strengthened and its findings made public.

Estimates of revenue and expenditure for the financial year 2025 – Section I – European Parliament (A9-0180/2024 - Anna-Michelle Asimakopoulou)
