Listing the third countries whose nationals must be in possession of visas when crossing the external borders and those whose nationals are exempt from that requirement (Kosovo) (A8-0261/2016 - Tanja Fajon)

28-03-2019

I have voted against this legislative report. I oppose the EU’s visa liberalisation policies and believe this should be a competency of a Member State to decide. In this case this is particularly important as not all Member States officially recognise Kosovo. For these reasons, I voted against this report.

Quality of water intended for human consumption (A8-0288/2018 - Michel Dantin)

28-03-2019

I have abstained on this legislative report. Whilst being against any attempt of EU legislation, I agree with the aim of greater transparency when it comes to drinkable water and I believe that consumers have the right to know what are they drinking and which materials came into contact with their water.

Establishing the Creative Europe programme (2021 to 2027) (A8-0156/2019 - Silvia Costa)

28-03-2019

I voted against this legislative report, this is another scheme to promote the EU at the expense of the taxpayer, set to cost EUR 1.85 billion

Written questions

Members can submit a specific number of questions to the President of the European Council, the Council, the Commission and the Vice-President of the Commission/High Representative of the Union, for written answer. Rule 138, Annex III
