Turning to the item for the adoption of the draft Recommendation on 'Climate Change and Gender Policies', the Chair thanked the parliamentarians for submitting their
amendments, which had provided useful and constructive contribution.

Of the 37 amendments tabled, 21 had been accepted in full, while 6 were accepted in part.
The Chair then put the draft recommendation to the vote, which was unanimously adopted by the Committee.
