    Today, Members of the Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee (ECON) have just voted in favour of a reform of the EU’s fiscal rules, which are likely to force more austerity on national governments and limit the amounts they can spend in times of crisis.

    Philippe Lamberts
    Opinion by Philippe Lamberts

    The European Commission published the revision of the Animal Transport Regulation. The Greens/EFA has long pushed for this, and welcome the Commission revision. However, the proposed measures are not enough. It’s long overdue to significantly raise EU standards for animal transports.
