Paragraph 16
16. Reinforces the European Union Agency for Railways (ERA), in line with the identified needs of this agency, to ensure it can adequately fulfil its role in supporting the transition towards the decarbonisation of transport modes; highlights that a higher level of staff is necessary for the Agency to cope with the high demand for issuing vehicle authorisations (VA), single safety certificates (SSC) and ERTMS trackside approvals (TA) and the implementation of the 4th Railway Package; stresses also that the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) classified as a ‘’European Strategic Investment’’ Agency with significant new core tasks in 2018 is in need of financial reinforcements to contribute to the fast-paced and innovative aviation sector in particular towards greener and more sustainable products in the area of urban mobility and artificial intelligence (fuels, electric or hydrogen propulsion and new comers such as drones);

Amendment 103 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 34
34. Underlines the importance of increasing appropriations for the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund, in particular in the light of the recent developments in Afghanistan; reverses, further, the decrease for the Border Management and Visa Instrument (BMVI) programmed by the Commission to finance new tasks for Europol under its enhanced mandate, as the necessary appropriations for Europol should be drawn exclusively from unallocated margins under the relevant MFF heading ceilings and/or through the mobilisation of the relevant MFF special instruments; calls for appropriate budgeting for Europol in view of the appointment of additional staff in 2022; the respective appropriations will mitigate the risks of a late adoption of the revised mandate and boost Europol’s response against terrorism and cybercrime, innovation, to support large scale investigations, cooperation with EPPO and anti-money laundering activities; against this background, offsets also the redeployment of BMVI for eu- LISA;

Amendment 151 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 49
49. Stresses that, given the new legislative proposals, such as Fit for 55 package and increased Union spending due to NGEU and the Recovery and Resilience Facility, some services, in particular the Commission’s Directorate-General for Environment and the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF), will need staff reinforcements; asks the Commission to reassess these needs and to propose these reinforcements in its Amending letter, without undermining the actual human resources level in its other services; highlights that the current level of budget and staff hinders the ability of OLAF to conduct its work in all Member States; also highlights the increased workload of OLAF with reference to the implementation of the EU’s Recovery and Resilience Facility and the liaison with EPPO;
