A letter (translated in many languages) for the MEPs was sent to the PP leaders list by mail. It's known that no feedback has been received from the German MEPs. No feedback from other PPs towards the PPI.
The request didn't show up in the plenary session in May in the end. It's also worth to go and act on PPs national level (i.e. in the Council). The PP-CZ did a marvelous job in gathering information from the Czech government and Parliament.
The Czech Republic was one of the countries forming the blocking minority in the Council. Its position has been held since 2008. Now, the Czech government wants to change the position not to block the directive in the Council anymore, which needs to be approved by both chambers of the Czech Parliament. The Senat disapproved the change. The Chamber Of Deputies is going to vote on it the upcoming week. The PP-CZ launched a campaign to oppose the tendencies to change the position of the Czech Republic.
At the moment, the situation in the Council is as follows: Against the directive is Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Sweden. No position (position reconsideration) has Finland, Hungary, Luxembourg, and Portugal. Countries that are ready to accept the directive are Bulgaria, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, Italy, Poland, Spain, and the United Kingdom. Malta isn't part of the blocation minority but is not in favor of accepting the directive in the first reading. This concludes that there's no blocking minority in the Council anymore, but also no qualified majority to accept the directive.
