Collective redress in the EU

Briefing 31-05-2011

Throughout these discussions, collective redress, already in existence in a number of Member States (MS), has been suggested as a possible solution. However, despite numerous studies and public consultations, as well as Green and White Papers, the Commission is yet to produce a concrete proposal.
