EU-Brazil Agreement on short-stay visa waiver for holders of diplomatic, service or official passports ***

European Parliament legislative resolution of 24 March 2022 on the draft Council decision on the conclusion, on behalf of the Union, of the Agreement between the European Union and the Federative Republic of Brazil amending the Agreement between the European Union and the Federative Republic of Brazil on short-stay visa waiver for holders of diplomatic, service or official passports (13445/2018 — C9-0415/2021 — 2018/0086(NLE))

(Consent)

(2022/C 361/17)

The European Parliament,

— having regard to the draft Council decision (13445/2018),

— having regard to the draft Agreement between the European Union and the Federative Republic of Brazil amending the Agreement between the European Union and the Federative Republic of Brazil on short-stay visa waiver for holders of diplomatic, service or official passports (13446/2018),

— having regard to the request for consent submitted by the Council in accordance with Article 77(2), point (a), and Article 218(6), second subparagraph, point (a)(v) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (C9-0415/2021),

— having regard to Rule 105(1) and (4), and Rule 114(7) of its Rules of Procedure,

— having regard to the recommendation of the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (A9-0030/2022),

1. Gives its consent to the conclusion of the agreement;
(7) While it is necessary to ensure that tax avoidance practices are discouraged, adverse impacts on smaller MNEs in the internal market should be avoided. For this purpose, this Directive should only apply to entities located in the Union that are members of MNE groups or large-scale domestic groups that meet the annual threshold of at least EUR 750 000 000 of consolidated revenue. This threshold would be consistent with the threshold of existing international tax rules such as the country-by-country reporting rules (9). Entities within the scope of this Directive are referred to as constituent entities. Certain entities should be excluded from the scope based on their particular purpose and status. Excluded entities would be those that are not profit-driven and perform activities in the general interest and which are, for these reasons, not likely to be subject to tax in the Member State in which they are located. In order to protect those specific interests, it is necessary to exclude from the scope of the Directive governmental entities, international organisations, non-profit organisations and pension funds from the scope of this Directive. Investment funds and real estate investment vehicles should also be excluded from the scope when they are at the top of the ownership chain, since, for those so-called flow-through entities, the income earned is taxed at the level of the owners.

For this purpose, this Directive should only apply to entities located in the Union that are members of MNE groups or large-scale domestic groups that meet the annual threshold of EUR 750 000 000 of consolidated revenue. This threshold would be consistent with the threshold of existing international tax rules such as the country-by-country reporting rules (9) and should therefore be respected by all Member States. The Commission should monitor how and to what extent Member States are applying the GloBE Model Rules to smaller entities and take appropriate measures if they are applying them in a way that conflicts with the principles of Union law or undermines the integrity of the internal market . Entities within the scope of this Directive are referred to as constituent entities. Certain entities should be excluded from the scope based on their particular purpose and status.

having regard to the report of the Committee on Budgetary Control (A5-0101/2003/rev1),

1. Postpones the decision concerning discharge with respect to the 2001 accounts of the Committee of the Regions for the following reasons:

- contradictions and differences of interpretation between the documents respectively produced by the Financial Controller and the Director of Administration of the Committee of the Regions which have been received in the context of the discharge procedure and confirmed in the meeting of the Committee on Budgetary Control on 19 March 2003;

- specific request already made by the Financial Controller for external assistance in addressing the outstanding problems of financial management;

- concerns raised by the Financial Controller regarding reimbursement for participation at external meetings, reimbursement of travel expenses and daily allowances;

2. Therefore calls on the Committee of the Regions to commission forthwith a detailed, full and independent audit, to be carried out by a recognised external institution - preferably by the European Court of Auditors - on the Committee's overall budget implementation as well as the financial and administrative management; considers that the audit should examine, inter alia, the areas listed above and attest to the sound financial management of the Institution, and that it should be delivered to the discharge authority as soon as possible in order to enable the latter to consider the final discharge decision for 2001 by October 2003 at the latest;
