Amendment 3 #
Draft opinion
Recital A a (new)
A a. whereas according to the statement1a of the European Commission: “the objective of the Rule of law Mechanism is preventive. It is separate from the other elements in the EU’s rule of law toolbox, and does not replace the Treaty-based mechanisms for the EU to respond to more serious rule of law related issues in Member States. These tools include infringement proceedings and the procedure to protect the founding values of the Union under Article 7 of the Treaty on European Union. It is also different from the budget conditionality procedure, which aims to protect the EU budget in situations where the Union’s financial interest might be at risk due to generalized deficiencies of the rule of law in a Member State”; _________________ 1a https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscor ner/detail/en/ip_20_1756

Amendment 16 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 3
3. Recalls that the Rule of Law Conditionality Regulation applies both to individual breaches of the principles of the rule of law and to ‘systemic’ breaches that are widespread or are a result of recurrent practices or omissions by public authorities, or general measures adopted by such authorities; regrets that the structure of the 2021 Rule of Law Report does not always lend itself to the effective identification of such systemic breaches and calls on the Commission for improvements in this respect.deleted
