Further negotiations on Brexit Aim to contribute to the upcoming negotiations with the UK government on the transition to a new EU-UK partnership after Brexit.

It is important that the association agreement with the UK is as deep as possible and based on three main pillars: economic partnerships, foreign affairs partnerships and sector-specific issues. A country outside the Union cannot enjoy the same rights as a Member State and the integrity of the EU single market and customs union must be maintained. Given the size and proximity of the UK economy, future competition with the EU must be open and fair, ensuring fair conditions and rules, including in the areas of social, environmental, fiscal, state aid, consumer protection and climate. To maintain trade without quotas and tariffs, the UK government should commit to updating the rules on competition, labour standards and environmental protection to ensure the dynamic compatibility of EU and UK laws. A free trade agreement requires a fisheries agreement. Should the UK fail to comply with EU laws and standards, the Commission should assess the potential quotas and tariffs for the sensitive sectors as well as the need for safeguard clauses. This is particularly important for imports of food and agricultural products, which must comply strictly with EU rules. Women's Law-making and resolution adopted priorities 64-it is regrettable that many of the challenges identified in the Beijing Declaration adopted 25 years ago are still relevant today. We need to take measures to promote women's economic and political empowerment: greater involvement of women in the labour market; More support for women's entrepreneurship; Eliminating the gender pay gap (16%) and the pension gap (37%); We are in favour of a uniform apportioned responsibility for household and caring responsibilities; Promote the education of girls and promote greater participation in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) sectors; Promoting gender balance at all levels of decision-making; the EU should urgently conclude the ratification of the Istanbul Convention on Preventing and Combating violence against women. It is necessary to allocate sufficient resources to combat gender-based violence, protect victims, defend and promote groups facing multiple and interdisciplinary discrimination and teises.ES Budgestime to better protect consumers by artificial intelligence and Automated decision-making. Faced with an automated decision-making system, such as a virtual helper, consumers should be properly informed about how it works, how the person can make decisions, and how system solutions can be inspected and corrected. It is important to create review structures to remove errors in automated solutions, as well as to enable users to apply for damages for unalienable automated solutions. There is a need to develop an artificial intelligence risk assessment framework and a common EU approach to ensure the benefits of these processes and mitigate risks across the EU. The Products Liability directive was adopted 30 years ago – time to renew it, clarify the concept and clear rules governing the burden of proof. It is also expected that the Commission will make changes to EU product safety rules (e.g. directives on machinery and toy safety), so that consumers are compulsorily informed about safety in the use of products and protect against harm, and that manufacturers are clearly aware of their obligations . In the debate on EU funding for the period 2021-2027, the group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats stressed that only the budget corresponding to the EU's ambitions would be accepted. Sufficient funding is essential for achieving the EU's overall ambition, such as combating climate change, digital and ecological transformation, and tackling the potential social consequences of these changes. A closer assessment of EU policy priorities and greater discipline in planning costs should be made. The resolution adopted by a large majority requires action on illegal trade of pets. We suggest introducing a mandatory EU registration system for cats and dogs, as well as obliging them to mark and register pet microchips in relevant databases. The European Commission is invited to introduce specific labelling and registration measures for cats and dogs, and to bind the relevant EU countries ' electronic databases by 2024. It is proposed to encourage people to choose pets from shelters, as well as to control the online trade of animals more strictly. It is calculated that approximately 46 thousand. Dogs per month are transported from one EU country to another. Most of them are not registered. Many representatives of animal breeding businesses abuse the existing rules.
