We now turn to EU scrutiny. Under Schedule A it is proposed that COM (2017) 648 warrants further scrutiny. It is further proposed to request the Department to update the committee once its examination of the implications of the reporting obligations contained within the proposal has concluded. Is that agreed? Agreed.

It is proposed that there are no subsidiarity concerns with COM (2019) 38. It is also proposed to retain this matter for further scrutiny. It is further proposed to clarify with the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport if the CO2 emissions report attached is specific to individual countries. Is that agreed? Agreed.

I now turn to Schedule B. I am required to read out the entire list. It is proposed that the following matters require no further scrutiny, that is, COM (2017) 289, COM (2015) 661, COM (2016) 31, COM (2016) 617, COM (2016) 693, COM (2016) 694, COM (2017) 279, COM (2018) 288, COM (2018) 559, COM (2018) 853, COM (2018) 854, COM (2019) 56, COM (2019) 72, COM (2019) 80, COM (2019) 91, COM (2019) 92, COM (2019) 121 and COM (2019) 122. Is that agreed? Agreed.
