These two texts have too little in common to be compared paragraph by paragraph (under 15 % of their paragraphs match): they are different documents rather than versions of one — for example a group’s motion and the joint text that was adopted.

Every difference

The full paragraph comparison, packaging included; long runs of unchanged paragraphs are folded. One part of the text per page.

Part 3 of 3: EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Removed~~EXPLANATORY STATEMENT~~

Removed~~Forest reproductive material (FRM) were so far regulated by Regulations EU 2016/2031 and 2017/625 and the Directive 1999/105/EC.~~

Removed~~With this proposal, the Commission unifies and updates the previous legal acts under a single legal framework, while taking into account new scientific and technological discoveries on FRM.~~

Removed~~The Rapporteur agrees broadly with the proposal of the Commission and welcomes the separation of plant and forest reproductive material, which are now treated in two different regulations.~~

RemovedThe Rapporteur appreciates the structure of the regulation as it improves the current framework and its implementation. The Rapporteur agrees with the derogations in case of supply difficulties and for research purposes. These derogations take into account the complex context of FRM and the management of forests in the European Union by respecting regional differences and existing partnerships between local authorities and research institutes. However, the Rapporteur underlines that it is not possible to collect all conservation varieties under Article 6, due to the complexity of forest material in comparison to plant reproductive materials (PRM).

RemovedWith regards to the labelling regulated under Article 16, the approach, the relation and the authorization between the competent authority and the final operator is improved with this proposal. The Rapporteur suggests reinforcing the role of the competent authority and proposes a new structure for the authorization procedure regarding labelling, with reference to the current Regulation 2016/2031.

Removed~~Concerning the role of the competent authority under Article 19, the Rapporteur suggests that although a derogation shall be notified to the Commission, it shall not be subject to its approval.~~

RemovedThe Rapporteur is confident that with this proposal and the suggested amendments to it, we can achieve the goal of having a single regulation on FRM that improves the situation for producers, forest managers, market operators, researchers and competent authorities.
