1.3. MFF negotiations - EMPL position (EC)

On the 1st of December 2019, the MFF negotiating box with a presidency text and concrete figures was leaked. The MFF sectoral Rapporteurs - Mr CASA for the ESF+ and Ms BLINKEVICIUTE for the EGF- were asked by BUDG on 4 December to convey feedback.

As the Chair was mandated to send EMPL’s views on the MFF (i.e. the set of amendments adopted during the 8th parliamentary term) in the form of a letter from to BUDG, it was suggested to combine this with input from Mr CASA and Ms BLINKEVICIUTE regarding the ESF+ and the EGF.

The draft letter shall be circulated to the Coordinators and both rapporteurs and finalised in a written procedure.

2. Points for information/follow-up of previous decisions

2.1. European Parliamentary week 2020 - dates and topics (LS)

Next year’s European Semester Conference (Article 131) will take place on 18-19 February 2020 in Brussels. It will include three plenary sessions as well as an interparliamentary committee meeting organised by EMPL in the afternoon of 18 February.

Decision:

The Coordinators

selected two topics for the EMPL ICM which will take place in the afternoon of 18 February, viz the Child Guarantee and the European Minimum Wage

confirmed that national Parliaments shall nominate their keynote speakers (2 speakers per topic).

2.2. Modification of the EMPL meeting dates in February (LE/JK)

In reference to the organisation of the European Parliamentary week, taking place on 18-19 February 2020 (please see point 2.1 above), the EMPL Committee has been asked to cancel the two half days on 19.2., as the Committee cannot convene in parallel of the EPW Plenary session.

4. Contact group on Artificial intelligence - appointment of EMPL representatives (LS/RS)

At its meeting on 22 October 2019, the Conference of Committee Chairs discussed the creation of an Inter-committees contact group on Artificial Intelligence.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is defined as “the theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and translation between languages.”3 A more elaborate definition characterizes AI as “a system’s ability to correctly interpret external data, to learn from such data, and to use those learnings to achieve specific goals and tasks through flexible adaptation.”4

The Conference of Committee Chairs noted that many expected European Commission proposals in the area of Artificial Intelligence (AI) during this parliamentary term are likely to be cross-cutting and to be in the remit of a high number of committees. The CCC Chair suggested to establish for this case a form of cooperation between committees by setting up a contact group aiming to promote the exchange of information and of expertise, ensure consistent positions among committees.

It was proposed that the Contact Group (CG) on artificial intelligence and robotics meet several times per year and report back to the CCC on a yearly basis. It was also suggested that the CG could: • reflect on AI as a cross-cutting topic;

• ensure a constant exchange of information between the various committees;• streamline the planning of hearings and requests for expertise;• create a climate of trust and cooperation amongst committees.

The CCC endorsed the above proposal on 22 October 2019 and the Chairs of the Committees were invited to nominate two Members per committee to the CG and two substitute Members. Political groups were invited to send names to the Secretariat, by Monday 2 December COB, in view of a Coordinators decision on the topics at their next meeting of 4 December.

However, on 26 November 2019, the CCC decided at the request of IMCO Chair Ms De Sutter, supported by JURI Chair Ms Nethsinga, to reconsider the matter.

Decision

The Coordinators

decided to write to CCC Chair Tajani in order to o seek clarifications as to the scope of the Contact Group and to

8. BREXIT - feedback from the Brexit Steering Group of 12.11. and the CCC meeting of 26.11. (EC)

Annex: Reply from Mr Barnier to the EMPL Chair as regards the invitation to attend the EMPL meeting on 4th December

Summary of the meeting of the Brexit Steering Group of 12 November:

• The EP Brexit Coordinator recalled that the situation as regards citizens' rights in the new Withdrawal Agreement (WA) is the same as in the previous WA negotiated with former P.M May;• A substantial part of the meeting was dedicated to the discussion of the draft Withdrawal agreement Bill which has been introduced before the House of Lord a bit before its dissolution The BSG has identified 6 remaining issues as regards the implementation as proposed in that bill:• Attribution of pre-settled and settled status;• Proof of status: absence of a physical documents (only digital ones) which will be problematic for some categories of citizens;• The independence of the Independent Monitoring Authority (as the bill foresees that it will be appointed directly by the Home Office);• Possible consequences (=deportation) for EU citizens who fail to apply to the EU Settlement Scheme before the application deadline;• The worrying situation of vulnerable citizens;• The applicability of settled status rights to all Northern Ireland citizens who have not also sought British citizenship.The Brexit Coordinator specified that there are mirroring concerns as regards the situation of British citizens living in EU27 – all MS need to clarify the system that will be applied (and which, like in the UK, must be transparent and free of charge).• During the exchange of views that followed, a substantial number of concerns were raised by the LIBE, AFCO, PETI, JURI and EMPL Members, on, inter aliia: the risk of a no-deal Brexit and its consequences for citizens; legal protection for EU citizens living in the UK/British citizens living in EU 27; the importance to ensure the actual independence of the monitoring authority; the specificity of citizens of Northern Ireland and the importance to safeguard rights of its citizens; the problems that can stem from the short transition period; the role of the EP in the next phases; the burden of proof as regards the proof of status; the risk of disfranchisement.As regards EMPL Matters, Ms Jongerius (echoed by Ms Kirton-Darling, who also called for the matter to be thoroughly investigated jointly by the BSG and EMPL) raised question on the implementation of frontier workers' rights (paragraph 8 of the draft Bill) and on coordination of social security (paragraph 13 of the draft bill). She also expressed some concerns and asked clarifications on the removal of Annex 4 on level-playing field (especially on social and labour standards) from the WA – concerns that were shared by several Members present. • The EP Brexit Coordinators indicated at the end of the meeting that:• The EP will push forward the above-mentioned 6 remaining issues as regards the implementation of the WA before the ratification and possibly propose some solutions (especially on the attribution of pre-settled and settled status, on the way to ensure the independance of the Monitoring Authority...) and will look more thoroughly at the issue of

FR

voting rights; frontier workers, coordination of social security systems....); • A side-resolution, to be adopted before the ratification, could address the other issues discussed today, in particular the issue of the level playing-field, and clarify which will be EP red lines in this respect as regards a future UK/EU agreement.

Summary of the CCC meeting with Mr Barnier on 26.11.2019

State of play

The new Withdrawal Agreement (WA) is extremely similar to the previous one negotiated with former PM May in 2018.

EU priority remain to preserve citizens 'rights. Lots of issues have been solved (governance, financial participation, legal

questions on Euratom, on IGP, on Cyprus and Gibraltar...) Transition is shorter with the new WA (11 months, extensible to 12/24 months

if UK and EU agree by 30.06.2020, versus 24 months in the previous WA) Key changes are on Ireland/Northern Ireland, where a complex solution had to

be found to accommodate both PM Johnson and EU27 red lines. Mr Barnier believes that this solution is sustainable and operational despite its complexity (while the previous 'backstop' was meant to be temporary). In a nutshell, Northern Ireland will belong to UK customs territory but EU customs rules will apply in Northern Ireland (controls will be carried out in cooperation with EU authorities) – each good that will enter the territory of Northern Ireland from a third country (including UK) will be presumed entering the single market, and thus subject to controls by EU customs, so that there is no risk for EU consumer. A joint Committee will issue derogations for products intended solely for Northern Ireland market.

EU State aid rules will apply to Northern Ireland. To ensure democratic support to this solution, the legislative Assembly of

Northern Ireland will be consulted every 4 years.

There will be 3 scenarios after the British elections on 12.12:

Scenario 1: B Johnson gets a clear majority - this is the most demanding scenario, with an extremely tight timetable, as the British Parliament would be able to immediately (as of 17.12, but probably in later December or early January 2020) ratifies the Withdrawal Agreement. EP would vote on the consent in January I or January II – the EU is currently preparing to that scenario;

Scenario 2: the Conservative Party wins the elections, but without a clear majority – this is the most uncertain scenario, where a no deal at the end of January 2020 remains possible – the EU is also preparing to this scenario;

Scenario 3: a new majority (labour Party, Liberal ...) emerges – this would entail a new timeframe, as new negotiations (on the political declaration...) and/or a new referendum could take place - the EU is not currently working on that scenario.

Working on the assumption that B Johnson will get a clear majority

FR

(Scenario 1), the work on the future EU/UK relationship will start in January 2020 ('TF article 50' becoming 'TF UK'). The Political Declaration of 17.10 will be the basis for the mandate for negotiations.

The President-elect of the Commission has asked Mr Barnier to keep the same working method with EP and Council as for the WA; Mr Barnier will also work with national parliaments on certain topics.

The future relationship would stand on 2 pillars: (1) economy and trade (which means, a free trade agreement, FTA) and (2) security and defence (with 5 sub-pillars).

On the future FTA, PM Johnson has asked no tariff and no quota, and in return EU has asked for no dumping. This appears in the political declaration and will be the EU line throughout the negotiations with the UK.

Mr Barnier highlighted that, contrary to other FTAs (with Canada, Japan...) which take place in a context of regulatory convergence, this FTA will be very specific as it concerns a country which has been interconnected with the EU for a long time, and as it will take place in a context of regulatory divergence.

Mr Barnier stressed that EU will refuse any FTA in case of social dumping by the UK and that the so-called 'level-playing field' (LPF) provisions (paragraph 77 of the new Political Declaration) will be an EU red line in negotiations.

Mr Barnier pointed out that the whole EU/UK future relationship cannot be settled in 11 months (if no extension is requested by UK) and that, as a result, some topics will be 'prioritaires' (e.g.: trade) while more time will be needed for others (e.g.: transport ) where contingency measures will therefore need to be adopted.

AFET, IMCO, ITRE, INTA Chairs and the EMPL Chair took the floor during this exchange of views.

EP procedures (also on the basis of Scenario 1 above)

On the consent procedure, Mr Verhofstadt specified that, while the procedure has been formally triggered by the Council, work will formally start (appointment of AFCO Rapporteur, adoption of opinions...) only after the British Parliament has ratified the WA. 10 Committees are preparing an opinion.

Meanwhile, Mr Verhofstadt recalled the 6 issues of concerns regarding citizens 'right that have been identified in the draft WA Bill (see above), and recalled that the EP will push forward these remaining issues as regards the implementation of the WA before the ratification and possibly propose some solutions.

The CoP will decide on a date tbc on the renewal, with a new format, of the BSG, in view of the forthcoming work on the future relationship. In particular, AFET and INTA will have a prominent role in this new BSG.

The EP resolution on the EU mandate in view of the relationship EU/UK will be adopted on 13.02.2020.

Issues of interest for EMPL (also on the basis of Scenario 1 above)

The EMPL Chair asked Mr Barnier what will happen, should there be a gap between the end of the transition period and the entry into force of the agreement on the future relationship

Page 28: PROCÈS-VERBAL · 2019-12-19 · PROCÈS-VERBAL Réunion du 4 décembre 2019, de 9 heures à 12 h 30 et de 14 h 30 à 16 heures BRUXELLES La séance est ouverte le mercredi 4 décembre

FR

(during which time the Protocol would be in effect) or hard Brexit after that: will the UK be able, under international law, to lower its labour standards below the current levels set by EU law?Mr Barnier explained that the removal of Annex 4 from the Protocol on Ireland and Northern Ireland is linked to the removal of the backstop (a red line for PM Johnson), and that UK strongly committed in the Political Declaration to ensure a level-playing-field. More specifically, UK committed to keep the social and labour standards as they will be at the end of the transition period (last part of paragraph 77: " To that end, the Parties should uphold the common high standards applicable in the Union and the United Kingdom at the end of the transition period in the areas of state aid, competition, social and employment"). Mr Barnier reiterated that the future FTA will hinge on 3 indivisible principles: no quota, no tariffs AND no dumping.

NB: Mr Barnier has been invited to attend the EMPL Committee meeting on 4th December to further discuss the new withdrawal agreement and the political declaration, but due to previous commitments he was unable to attend (his reply is among the annexes).

Decision:

The Coordinators

tooke note of this Motion for Resolution, of which the content could possibly be considered when deciding on new INI reports within the EMPL Committee, perhaps in a broader context, while the more specific issue of learning disorders could possibly be taken into account in the forthcoming EMPL implementation report on the Employment Equality Directive ("vocational guidance, vocational training, advanced vocational training and retraining" were included in the scope of the directive);

decided that no further action was required at this stage.
