"Out of principle, and as substitute member of the Committee on International Trade, I am in favour of all agreements aimed at closer relations between the EU and third countries that are committed to moving closer to our legislative standards. As Chair of the European Parliament Delegation for relations with Mashreq countries and Vice-Chair of the EU-Morocco friendship group in the European Parliament, I welcome all agreements between the EU and the Kingdom of Morocco. That said, however, I would clarify that I reject any form of unfair competition with European companies, whether in the form of any kind of dumping, abuse or illegality under the terms of the agreements signed. Therefore, following concerns raised in the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development about monitoring timeframes and tariff quotas, compliance with EU legislative standards, geographical indications, competitiveness problems and the counter-seasonality of imports from Morocco, I decided to use a written question submitted two weeks ago to ask the Commission and the Council for some clarification on this agreement in order to clarify whether there is any detailed EU economic impact assessment for this agreement. How does the Commission intend to monitor compliance with EU standards and monitor the tariff quotas and timeframes? Moreover, when will there be agreement on geographical indications?"@en1
