The Committee on Legal Affairs adopted the recommendation for second reading contained in the report by Jiří POSPÍŠIL (EPP, CZ), on the Council position at first reading with a view to the adoption of a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Regulation (EC) No 805/2004 as regards the use of the regulatory procedure with scrutiny in order to adapt it to Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.
The committee responsible recommended that the plenary approve the Council's position at first reading, without amendment.
The Council position concerns the alignment of Regulation (EC) No 805/2004 creating a European Enforcement Order for uncontested claims. The only provision of Regulation (EC) No 805/2004 that provides for the use of the regulatory procedure with scrutiny is amended to provide for the use of delegated acts to amend the annexes in order to update the standard forms.
Parliament's prerogatives have been fully preserved through the replacement of the former regulatory procedure with scrutiny with a delegated act under Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.
