Before opening insolvency proceedings, courts must actively examine whether the debtor's COMI is actually located within their jurisdiction. As regards the determination of the COMI, special consideration should be given to creditors and to their perception as to where the debtor conducts the administration of his business. In the event of a shift in COMI, this may in due course require informing creditors of the new location from which the debtor is carrying out his activities in due course.

In order to increase the use of tap water and thereby contributing to reduced plastic litter and greenhouse gas emissions, the public should have up-to-date information on the quality of the water that they consume. The co-legislators agreed that such information should be accessible to consumers on-line, in a user-friendly and customised way. Citizens will have access to the results of the monitoring programmes, information on types of water treatment and disinfection applied, information on exceedance of the parametric values relevant for human health, relevant information on risk assessment and risk management of the supply system, advice on how to reduce water consumption and avoid health risks due to stagnant water, but also additional information that the public may find useful, such as information on indicators like iron, hardness and, minerals, etc., which often influence consumers’ perceptions of tap water. In addition, as a response to consumers interests in water issues, they should be given access, upon request, to available historical data on monitoring results and exceedances.

During negotiations in November and December 2020, co-legislators were able to reach a compromise on the following outstanding issues: — Duration of the Programme: The Council and the European Parliament agreed that the Programme is established for the period from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2027 and that the duration of the Programme is aligned to the duration of the MFF. — Technical and administrative assistance for the implementation of the Programme: Co-legislators agreed that the total costs of administrative and technical support shall not exceed 5 % of the value of the overall financial envelope available for the implementation of the Programme. — Designated beneficiaries representing consumers interest at the Union level: It was agreed that the Commission is empowered to adopt delegated acts in relation to the representation of consumers interest at the Union level to amend the list of entities that may be awarded a grant under the Programme without a call for proposals. — National reference laboratories as designated beneficiaries, and their accreditation: Agreement was reached on the possibility for national plant health reference laboratories and national animal health reference laboratories to benefit as designated beneficiaries from grants awarded under the Programme if the actions by those national laboratories that are supported by the Programme represent Union added value, and if sufficient funding is available under the Programme to support these actions. Comparable conditions are foreseen for the determination of the designated beneficiaries and for their accreditation. — Co-financing rules in the area of plants, animals, food and feed: The Council and the European Parliament agreed on a fixed co-financing rate of 50 %, that is exceptionally increased to 75 % and 100 % under certain conditions. It will be possible for the Commission to adopt an implementing act to set a lower co-financing rate where that is necessary on the grounds of budgetary availability, insufficient implementation of the Programme or the emergency measure, or the phasing-out of the co-financing of actions against animal diseases or plant pests. — Delegated acts, implementing acts and committees: Co-legislators agreed that work programmes are adopted by implementing acts intended to give effect to the rules already laid down in the basic act and in accordance with related sectoral legislation where applicable. Actions set out in Annex II shall be implemented in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 223/2009 on European Statistics. With regard to delegated acts, it was agreed that the power to adopt delegated acts shall be conferred on the Commission for a period of 7 years, and that it shall be tacitly extended for periods of an identical duration unless the European Parliament or the Council opposes such extension. — Retroactivity: It was agreed that the Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union, and that it shall apply from 1 January 2021.

The Council’s position at first reading on the Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing the Fiscalis programme for cooperation in the field of taxation fully reflects the compromise reached in the negotiations between the Council and the European Parliament, facilitated by the Commission. The Council position at first reading represents a good balance and, once adopted, the new Regulation will fulfil its objectives. This compromise is confirmed by the letter that the Chair of the ECON Committee addressed to the Chair of the Permanent Representatives Committee on 23 April 2021.

The agreement focuses on the following elements: — actions under the IPA III are to be financed through a thematic approach, in order to maximise the impact of the Union's assistance, whilst ensuring consistency, synergies and complementarities with other areas of Union external action, with other relevant Union policies and programmes; — coherence between the assistance and the overall enlargement policy framework, as well as cooperation between the Commission and the Member States in ensuring coherence and avoiding duplication between assistance provided under IPA III and other assistance; — assistance under this Regulation is based both on a performance-based approach and a fair share principle: it is be differentiated in scope and intensity according to performance of the beneficiaries while the needs and capacities of those beneficiaries are to be taken into account in order to avoid a disproportionately low level of assistance as compared to other beneficiaries; — it is foreseen that the scope and intensity of assistance could be modulated in case of significant regression or persistent lack of progress by a beneficiary in the fundamental areas (rule of law and fundamental rights, democratic institutions and public administration reform as well as economic development and competitiveness), including by reducing proportionally and redirecting the funds, in ways that should avoid compromising support for improving fundamental rights, democracy and the rule of law, including support to civil society and, where appropriate, cooperation with local authorities. Where progress has resumed, the assistance would also be modulated accordingly to further support those efforts; — a specific strategic board in the management of the EFSD+ operations for the Western Balkans; — ensuring the visibility of the Union funding by the recipients of such funding, in particular when promoting and reporting on the actions and their results by highlighting the support received from the Union and its benefits for people in a visible manner on communication material related to the actions supported under this Regulation; and by providing coherent, effective and proportionate targeted information to multiple audiences, including the media and the public in a strategic manner; — a balance between the procedural provisions of the Instrument: it was agreed that programming documents will be adopted by means of implementing acts and that the Commission be empowered to adopt delegated acts to supplement this Regulation by setting out certain specific objectives and thematic priorities for cooperation, as well as to amend the thematic priorities for assistance and the list of key performance indicators in Annexes II, III and IV; — the definition of key performance indicators to be used to help measure the progress and, where appropriate, readiness by beneficiaries listed in Annex I and the Union’s contribution to the achievement of the specific objectives of IPA III (Annex IV); — the Regulation's retroactive application from 1 January 2021 (recital (36)).
