Nature restoration

The Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety (rapporteur: César LUENA (S&D, ES)) recommended that the European Parliament reject the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on nature restoration.

The committee rejected the proposal for a law on nature restoration as amended. The final vote was 44 to 44 against, with 0 abstentions, falling short of a majority in favour.

As a reminder, the proposal aims, as part of the Green Deal, to contribute to the long-term restoration of damaged nature in the EU's terrestrial and maritime areas, and to achieve the EU's climate and biodiversity objectives.
