Since June 2014, the European Council Oversight Unit within the European Parliamentary Research Service (EPRS), the European Parliament's in-house research service and think tank, has been monitoring and analysing the European Council's delivery on commitments made in the conclusions of ...

Creating a working group regarding a holistic esports ...

This briefing paper describes and evaluates the law and economics of institution(al) protection schemes. Throughout our analysis, we use Europe’s largest such scheme, that of German savings banks, as paradigm. We find strengths and weaknesses: Strong network-internal monitoring and early warning seems to be an important contributor to IPS network success. Similarly, the geographical quasi-cartel encourages banks to build a strong client base, including SME, in all regions. Third, the growth of ...

The present study provides an analysis of the existing Institutional Protection Schemes (IPSs) in the Banking Union within the context of the ongoing review of the bank crisis management and deposit insurance framework. The paper examines how IPSs form an integral part of the European deposit insurance protection architecture, specifically in Germany and Austria, and how IPS operate alongside National Resolution Authorities and National Deposit Insurance Schemes

In 2018, under the new Multiannual Financial Framework for 2021-2027, the Commission adopted a proposal for the next EU research and innovation programme, Horizon Europe. The programme will help the Union to become resilient to future crises, to address challenges such as climate change, and to foster digitalisation. Following an early second-reading agreement reached in December 2020, Parliament is expected to vote on adopting the text in April, thus finalising the legislative procedure. It will ...

The ongoing structural transformation and the rapid spread of the technologies of the fourth industrial revolution are challenging current democratic institutions and their established forms of governance and regulation. At the same time, these changes offer vast opportunities to enhance, strengthen and expand the existing democratic framework to reflect a more complex and interdependent world. This process has already begun in many democratic societies but further progress is needed. Examining these ...

This study, commissioned by the European Parliament’s Policy Department for Citizens’ Rights and Constitutional Affairs at the request of the PETI Committee, deals with so called dual quality products, that is goods (food products, detergents, cosmetics, toiletries and products intended for babies, etc.) marketed on the Single Market under the same brand or trademark but with differences in content, composition or quality in individual EU Member States. The issue of dual quality products is one ...

Tutkimusta ja teknologian kehittämistä (T&K) koskeva politiikka on ollut merkittävä unionin lainsäädännön ala ensimmäisistä yhteisön perustamissopimuksista lähtien, ja sitä laajennettiin 1980-luvun alussa perustamalla eurooppalainen tutkimuksen puiteohjelma. Vuodesta 2014 EU:n tutkimusrahoitusta on kanavoitu pääasiassa unionin kahdeksannessa tutkimuksen ja innovoinnin puiteohjelmassa ”Horisontti 2020”, joka kattaa kauden 2014–2020 ja jonka tarkoituksena on turvata Euroopan globaali kilpailukyky.
