Tariff quotas for wine exports from Kosovo

The European Parliament adopted by 314 to 23, with 12 abstentions, a legislative resolution on the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on amending Council Regulation (EC) No 1215/2009 in relation to tariff quotas for wine.

Parliament adopted its position at first reading following the ordinary procedure. The amendments adopted in plenary are the result of a compromise negotiated between the European Parliament and the Council.

Delegated acts: the power to adopt delegated acts should be conferred on the Commission for a period of five years from the date of entry into force of the proposed Regulation. The delegation of power should be tacitly extended for periods of an identical duration, unless the European Parliament or the Council opposes such extension not later than three months before the end of each period.

The delegation of power may be revoked at any time by the European Parliament or by the Council. A decision to revoke shall put an end to the delegation of the power. It shall not affect the validity of any delegated acts already in force.
