Special Measure for Tunisia 2023

This resolution concerns a special EU financial measure adopted in favour of Tunisia for 2023. The European Parliament is questioning the procedure used by the Commission to adopt this measure and seeking clarification on its conditions and impact.

The measure affects Tunisia, which is set to receive EU financial support. The European Parliament, as an EU institution, is directly involved in scrutinising the adoption and implementation of such measures.

The Parliament contests the use of an urgent written procedure, arguing that the Commission announced the funding months earlier, allowing for a standard procedure. It also questions the clarity of the criteria for disbursing the funds and whether Tunisia currently meets the required standards for democracy and human rights.

The resolution calls for detailed explanations from the Commission regarding the procedure, the conditionality of the funds, and assurances for future parliamentary oversight and access to project sites in Tunisia.
