On this occasion we are translating the update &#8211; please check next week our update on CETA and request for action <a href=\"http:\/\/www.epsu.org\/article\/epsu-update-ceta-15-december-2016\">on our website<\/a> for other languages versions. The focus of the update is on the ratification process in the European Parliament. There are key votes planned on CETA for 12 December (ENVI Committee), 24 January (INTA Committee) and 1 February (plenary) where your lobbying support is requested.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>The EPSU roadmap to oppose <a href=\"https:\/\/unionsyndicale.eu\/en\/files\/tisa\/\">CETA<\/a> was adopted by the EPSU Executive Committee in April 2016 following the completion of the agreement\u2019s negotiations and was based on long-standing criticism of the impact of CETA on public services, workers rights and democracy. EPSU\u2019s letter to the European Parliament\u2019s trade committee INTA in March 2016 was instrumental in signaling discontent over the final result &#8211; see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.epsu.org\/a\/12103\">http:\/\/www.epsu.org\/a\/12103<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The EPSU roadmap was confirmed by the Executive Committee in November 2016, notwithstanding efforts that took place during the last months to secure certain improvements to the way that the agreement may be interpreted. These efforts resulted in an \u2018Interpretative Instrument\u2019 that may help to mitigate some parts of CETA\u2019s provisions but the essential problems with CETA remain.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The most immediate task is to contact ENVI MEPs to ask their support for the ENVI CETA Opinion that will be voted on 12 January. Beyond this lobbying MEPs. EPSU materials to support actions and awareness on CETA are available on the EPSU website <a href=\"http:\/\/www.epsu.org\/CETA\">http:\/\/www.epsu.org\/CETA<\/a> and do not hesitate to ask for any further information that might be helpful.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_large\"><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_medium with_line width_50 thick_3 style_solid color_primary align_center\"><div class=\"w-separator-h\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-sm-2 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_auto\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discover here in our article the latest EPSU newsletter about an update on CETA (from December 2016) and request for action.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4638,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[],"dossier-special":[],"class_list":["post-5200","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Update on CETA &amp;
