The European Commission is currently negotiating a revision of the 1994 Energy Charter Treaty (ECT). This revision would, inter alia, reform the ECT's investor–state dispute resolution mechanisms and explicitly allow countries to take regulatory actions affecting existing investments, for reasons such as environmental protection or climate action.

L’exécution différenciée de la directive 2008/52/CE sur certains aspects de la médiation en matière civile et commerciale a mis en lumière certaines lacunes différenciées selon les pays. Les obstacles du développement de la médiation judiciaire se retrouvent surtout au niveau de l’organisation pratique et dans une moindre mesure dans l’usage excessif de la notion d’ordre public.
