- MEPs in the economic and monetary affairs committee have proposed amendments to the existing rules on taxation information exchange and administrative cooperation.

- The rapporteur for the House’s opinion, Rasmus Andresen, stated that they favor common minimum penalties for non-reporting, a definition of high net worth individuals, and expanding what needs to be exchanged, such as income and capital gains from financial assets and luxurious assets.
- They also requested the Commission to consider setting up a European Taxpayer Identification Number.
