"In favour of the amended proposal. The vote on the legislative resolution was postponed. It is rather unlikely that the safeguard clause will ever be applied. Nevertheless, the report is an occasion to bring into the discussion aspects other than rises and declines in export/import data. Greens followed the rapporteur in his call for a closer look not only at economic implications of the foreseen trade liberalisation, but also the implementation of environmental and social aspects. The respect for international conventions in these areas should be fully monitored and reported. To this end, trade unions, NGOs, the European Parliament and concerned civil society organisations should be consulted. Furthermore, an explicit reference to the outermost regions should be introduced. Though DG Trade was not happy with a good number of the amendments proposed (45 in the International Trade Committee, plus the Agriculture Committee opinion), which they considered as outside their realm of competence (such as social and environmental data!!), and though DG Trade carried out extensive lobbying ahead of the International Trade Committee vote, a good number of those amendments passed. The current European Parliament proposal differs therefore quite substantively from the Commission proposal."@en1
