Legislative examination underway with end-2026 political target

The EU Inc proposal is progressing through parallel legislative tracks. The Council Working Party on Company Law has held multiple technical sessions through June 2026, with the Cyprus Presidency continuing negotiations focused on safeguards, transparency, and workers' rights. In Parliament, JURI Committee rapporteur René Repasi is preparing a draft report for June 26, with amendment deadlines set for July 17. Both co-legislators are working toward the European Council's end-2026 political agreement target.

The next critical milestone is the June 26 presentation of Parliament's draft report, followed by the July 17 amendment deadline – these will define Parliament's negotiating position heading into the second half of 2026.
