What it asks for, in the Parliament's words

• Calls on Member States to follow recommendations to shift taxation away from labour to other factors that are less detrimental to sustainable growth
• Deplores the fact that in many Member States the per capita gross disposable household income is still below the 2008 pre-crisis level; urges the Member States to do more to reduce inequalities
• Stresses the importance of complying with the recommendations of EU auditors

Quoted from A9-0016/2019, which says more than these lines. Each is a whole paragraph; this site does not rewrite them.
