"The report largely transposes the framework of the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) of the World Trade Organisation (WTO). EFDD amendments 2-7 strengthen the report in order to allow for the full exclusion of public services from TiSA, the right to reverse commitments, and the right to withdraw from the agreement. Since these amendments did not pass as a bloc, UKIP MEPs voted to abstain on the resolution as a whole. The resolution passed as amended. However, UKIP MEPs voted for amendment 3 (25), which calls for a clause allowing withdrawal from the agreement and reversal of commitments by each signatory – and this amendment passed, with those voting against including the entire British delegation from the ECR Group, as well as the entire EPP Group. We voted for Amendment 22, calling for a positive-list approach in TiSA (mirroring the existing WTO rules on services and trade). We voted in favour of this."@en1
