Compendium of Initial Appraisals of European Commission Impact Assessments: July 2014 - December 2015

Briefing 03-09-2015

The European Parliament's Ex-Ante Impact Assessment Unit routinely undertakes initial appraisals of Impact Assessments accompanying the European Commission's legislative proposals when they arrive in Parliament, to check that certain criteria are met and to identify their basic methodological strengths and weaknesses. The initial appraisals do not attempt to deal with the substance of the proposal and are drafted for informational and background purposes to assist the relevant parliamentary committee(s) and Members more widely in their work.The present volume is a compendium of all Initial Appraisals produced from July 2014 to December 2015.
