The European Parliament has published a resolution objecting to delegated regulation proposed by the Commission which seeks to amend a delegated regulation supplementing the fourth Money Laundering Directive (MLD IV) by identifying high-risk third countries with strategic deficiencies.
The European Parliament rejected the amending delegated regulation on the basis that the list of countries is too limited and should be expanded to include territories that facilitate tax crimes. The objection calls on the Commission to submit a new delegated act which takes into account those countries.
