Before the summer break in Brussels, the debate on the anti-deforestation regulation has picked up speed. Last week in Portugal, the EPP Group discussed its position on the law, which is to be implemented in a few months. The 5-point plan that MEPs finally adopted talks about postponing the application of the regulation and „solving the problems related to its implementation.“ The S&D Group, on the other hand, added to its list of demands for the next Commission during the last votes and now explicitly mentions that the regulation must remain in place.
