COVID-19 Agenda

The European Parliament agenda is dominated by the Coronavirus emergency given the credible threat of a resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic in different regions. 

The Committee on Regional Development is to vote on a report presented by rapporteurs Mr. Novakov (EPP) and Ms. Krehl (S&D) on the Commission’s REACT-EU proposal. The policy objective is to increase Cohesion Fund  support for economic recovery from the COVID-19 crisis. 

The Committee on Environmental, Public Health and Food Safety meets to debate a European Vaccine Strategy, complete with a framework for Vaccines Advance Purchase Agreements. This is expected to be milestone development as the European Commission is already in talks with producers to secure safe and affordable vaccines for all Europeans. 

The Subcommittee on Human Rights of the Committee on Foreign Affairs is expected to assess the situation in Belarus in the aftermath of the hotly  contested presidential elections of 9 August last. The  meeting will be attended by   representatives of Bielarusian Civil Society who are expected to testify.  

The Agriculture and Rural Development Committee meets to assess the effects of the C-19  pandemic on the agriculture sector across Europe. 

The Committee on Industry, Energy and Research will be holding a similar  meeting.
