The main change is that Parliament now refuses discharge to the Council for 2023, instead of granting or postponing it.1 The resolution is restructured to focus on the Council's non-cooperation, omitting detailed budget figures and administrative observations.7 Adds a recital on the Ombudsman's finding of maladministration and drops a reference to performance-based budgeting.62 Other changes are wording adjustments, such as 'almost twenty years' and 'since 2009'.345
The notes class 4 changes as substance, 0 as formal, 3 as wording only.
