AI: What this vote decides Written by AI from the official text — check the source

The Commission proposed updating the EU list of high-risk third countries for money laundering and terrorist financing, adding ten countries and removing eight, including Gibraltar.

Parliament rejected the objection to this delegated regulation, so the Commission's measure goes ahead as planned.

The resolution had asked the Commission to keep Gibraltar on the list and to submit a new act, but that request has no effect now.
