The problem definition in the impact assessment (IA) appears to be well-supported by evidence. The IA provides a sufficient range and description of the policy options, albeit sometimes lacking in detail. The assessment of the options' impacts (economic, social, environmental, fundamental rights) is qualitative and quantitative. It appears to be based on sound research and analysis, with clear acknowledgement that the available data are limited. The IA provides a comprehensive summary of the preferred ...

Since the free trade agreement (FTA) signed with South Korea in 2009, EU trade deals have included a dedicated trade and sustainable development (TSD) chapter encompassing provisions on protection of the environment, labour rights and climate change. However, in recent years evaluation of the EU's trade policy has focused on the question of how to improve the implementation and enforcement of sustainability provisions and, in particular, the TSD chapters in EU trade agreements. Parliament has long ...

Está previsto que el Parlamento Europeo someta a votación el texto definitivo resultante de las negociaciones tripartitas durante la sesión plenaria de septiembre.

The European single market celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. On 1 January 1993, the then 12 Member States abolished border controls between each other, launching free movement of people, goods, services and capital. This infographic celebrates the single market's anniversary, looking at the history of the European Union (EU) in terms of macro-economic indicators as the number of Member States has grown. It shows exports of goods, services and investments; movement of people within the EU ...

Además de la ceremonia, tendrá lugar en el Parlamento una votación sobre una propuesta de resolución, aprobada por la Comisión de Mercado Interior y Protección del Consumidor el 12 de diciembre de 2022. En su programa de trabajo para 2023, la Comisión anunció una comunicación sobre «El mercado único cumple 30», que se publicará a principios del primer trimestre del año.

The ex-ante analysis of this initiative, aimed at addressing impacts on the single market caused by a potential future crisis, implies major uncertainties and limitations, openly acknowledged by the IA (notably owing to a lack of data). Notwithstanding this important caveat, the IA develops a clear intervention logic, linking the problems with objectives to achieve through three policy options, without, however, fully complying with the Better Regulation Guidelines. It assesses the broad scope of ...

In 2020, there were over 76 million cattle in the European Union (EU) and beef production reached 6.8 million tonnes – output that makes the EU the world's third largest producer, after the United States and Brazil. The sector is diverse in terms of herd size, farm structure and geographical distribution of farms between EU regions. Beef is an important element of most European diets, and it is the third most widely consumed meat in the world. EU beef, together with other EU food products, is known ...

On 15 June, the EU relaunched the infringement procedure against the UK for failing to properly implement ...

On 5 May 2022, voters elected the members of the Northern Ireland Assembly (NIA) in a challenging political context, due among other things to differences over the Northern Ireland Protocol. Indeed, the largest unionist party in Northern Ireland strongly opposes the Protocol, and has blocked the work of Northern Ireland's political institutions pending changes in its operation. The UK government has reiterated its readiness to 'unilaterally dis-apply' the Protocol and/or to suspend it – putting forward ...
