What it asks for, in the Parliament's words

• Calls on the Council to tackle gender and geographical imbalances in order to establish a proper representation of nationals from all Member States, including at management level
• Notes that over the course of almost twenty years Parliament has developed the practice of granting discharge to all Union institutions, bodies, offices and agencies
• Underlines the need to re-start negotiations with the Council with a view to reaching a mutually satisfactory agreement to finally overcome this situation of deadlock

Quoted from A9-0056/2021, which says more than these lines. Each is a whole paragraph; this site does not rewrite them.
