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

The European Parliament voted to reject an objection to a Commission delegated regulation that sets a Union-wide method for calculating the life-cycle global warming potential of buildings.

The objection failed, so the Commission measure goes ahead as planned.

The Parliament calls on the Commission to submit a new, more limited delegated regulation by the third quarter of 2026.
