ATAG to the study - Using an own, newly elaborated functional definition of mobility poverty, this study first estimates mobility poverty in the nine EU outermost regions and assesses its effects on their transport and tourism sectors. It then reviews the Fit for 55 transport-related legislation and analyses its implications for these remote territories. It also outlines the main EU, national and regional measures tackling the adverse effects of both mobility poverty and the new climate legislation, and finally concludes with policy recommendations.

In response to the difficulties and challenges faced by EU farmers in recent years, the Commission put forward a proposal to amend some of the rules on the common organisation of the markets in agricultural products (CMO), so as to reinforce the position of farmers in the food supply chain. The proposed amendments enhance the existing provisions on contracts involving farmers, reinforce the bargaining power of producer organisations, simplify their recognition, and establish an incentive framework for voluntary schemes and social sustainability initiatives benefiting farmers. The proposal was published, and is being advanced, together with the proposal for a new regulation on cross-border cooperation in the enforcement of the directive on unfair trading practices (UTP), which is part of the same efforts to improve the position of farmers.

Germany was originally entitled to a maximum financial contribution of €25.6 billion in grants from the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), the unprecedented EU response to the crisis triggered by the coronavirus pandemic. The national recovery and resilience plan (NRRP) for Germany does not include requests for loans. Following the latest amendment of the German NRRP in July 2024, which added a REPowerEU chapter, the EU resources devoted to the plan reached €30.3 billion. This amount corresponds to 4 % of the entire RRF and to 0.9 % of Germany's 2019 gross domestic product (GDP). For most of the measures, additional funding will also come from national sources. There is a strong focus on the green transition. Measures relating to climate protection – including key actions on mobility and housing – were projected to receive 42 % of the allocation in the initial version of the plan. The modified NRRP increases this level of ambition to 49.5 % of the updated allocation. It also shows a strong digital ambition, devoting 47.5 % of the allocation (excluding REPowerEU) to digital measures across various sectors ranging from industry to education, social policy and healthcare, and public administration. Germany has so far received €19.75 billion from the RRF in the form of pre-financing and two result-based payments covering three instalments. The remaining 34.9 %, or €10.55 billion, will be paid in two other instalments once Germany has satisfactorily fulfilled the related milestones and targets identified in relation to RRF implementation. The European Parliament, which was a major advocate of creating a common EU recovery instrument, participates in interinstitutional cooperation and discussions on its implementation and scrutinises the European Commission's work. This briefing is one in a series covering all EU Member States. Third edition. The 'NGEU delivery' briefings are updated at key stages throughout the lifecycle of the plans.
