European Defence Action Plan (Communication)

verabschiedet on 31/05/2017
Referenz: 
CCMI/149-EESC-2016
Referral: 
COM(2016) 950 final
Rapporteur:

President Juncker stressed in his 2016 State of the Union Speech the need for a Europe that protects, empowers and defends. Taking greater responsibility for their security means that Europeans must invest in the development of key defence capabilities to be able to deter, respond and protect themselves against external threats. The European Union must demonstrate that it can act as a provider of hard as well as soft security, addressing calls for greater solidarity in security and defence. The Bratislava roadmap, the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union have also recently underlined this priority.

Digitalisation and innovative business models in the European financial sector, impact on employment and customers (own-initiative opinion)

verabschiedet on 26/04/2017
Referenz: 
CCMI/147-EESC-2016
Rapporteur:

Co-rapporteur:

Banking and insurance are evolving. Insurance companies and banks are at the forefront of the development of the digital economy. The very nature of their activities lends itself to the intensive use of the new technologies. In a highly competitive framework marked by a keener pursuit of competitiveness, insurance companies and banks have become part of an ongoing drive for innovation.

Referral: 
COM(2016) 593 final 2016/0280 CODCOM(2016) 594 final 2016/0284 CODCOM(2016) 596 final 2016/0278 COD

With this opinion the EESC welcomes the package of measures to adapt copyright to the requirements of the digital economy, by aiming to eliminate fragmentation while, at the same time, enhancing protection for creators. The EESC supports the exclusive related right of publishers to authorise or prohibit the digital use of their press publications for a period of twenty years and urges to harmonise the "freedom of panorama" exception by means of European rules. The EESC also refers to the ECJ judgment stating that, under certain conditions, the lending of a digital copy of a book has similar characteristics to the lending of printed works.

Strengthening European personal care, hygiene and cosmetic products industries

verabschiedet on 20/10/2016
Referenz: 
CCMI/143-EESC-0000
Rapporteur: 
Madi Sharma (Employers - GR I / United Kingdom)
Co-rapporteur: 
Dirk Jarré (Diversity Europe - GR III/Germany)

Europe has always played a key role in the innovation and development of personal care, body hygiene and beauty products. However its leading position has progressively been eroded in the process of global competition. While the innovative capacity of Europe’s specialised enterprises is very impressive, the production and commercialisation of European inventions have shifted to other parts of the world with serious economic and social consequences for Europe in terms of benefits, labour opportunities and incentives for research and development. To strengthen this particular branch of industry by appropriate strategies will lead to a major contribution to industrial reshoring and industrial development.

Referral: 
COM(2016) 393 final
Rapporteur: 
Juan MENDOZA CASTRO (Spain)

The EESC welcomes the 2015 Report and considers it fundamental to have a competition policy that ensures a level playing field in all sectors. Imports based on unfair competition constitute a danger to European businesses. Anti-dumping measures are essential to save jobs and protect the economy.
