SMP – state of play of adoption procedure
07/08/2018
Commission proposal
COM(2018)441final
29/11/2018 - COUNCIL
Partial general approach on the COM
proposal (with amendments) voted at the
12/02/2019 – EU Parliament
Competitiveness Council adopted (with amendments) after first
reading in the EP plenary session
(Council agreed on all technical aspects of the
regulation with exception of certain horizontal no mandate established to enter into inter-
provisions (most notably Country participation and institutional negotiations
rule of law) and the general and specific budgetary
envelopes)
Trilogues
cannot start before the next EP is in place (August-September 2019)
NB: Theoretically, the next EP could ignore the 12/02/2019 vote and decide to revote the text with
different amendments, but this is unlikely (EP has almost never done this, this text is not so important on
the political point on view, first vote is very positive: 520 in favor, 125 against, 33 abstentions)
