Unterausschuss für Sicherheit und Verteidigung (SEDE) - Europäisches Parlament

In the context of the exponential growth of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), the President of the European Parliament has announced a number of measures to contain the spread of epidemic and to safeguard Parliament's core activities.

The current precautionary measures adopted by the European Parliament to contain the spread of COVID-19 do not affect work on legislative priorities. Core activities are reduced, but maintained to ensure that the institution's legislative, budgetary, scrutiny functions are maintained.

The meetings will be with remote participation for Members (being able to view and listen to proceedings, ask for the floor and intervene in the meeting). Other participants are invited to follow the meeting through webstreaming.

Following these decisions, the next meeting of the Subcommittee on Security and Defence (SEDE) will take place on 9 September 2021 (online).
The meeting agenda and documents will be published here.

The Subcommittee on Human Rights will discuss the cooperative financing mechanism agreement reached between the European Defence Agency and the European Investment Bank, with EIB Vice-President Kris Peeters, on 12 July. Since the current rules do not allow the EIB to finance purely military projects or infrastructure, the agreement has the same ambition as the European Development Fund (EDF) and the Permanent Structured Cooperation (PESCO).
