Single Market Enforcement Action Plan

Antagna on 15/07/2020
Dokumentreferens: 
INT/899-EESC-2020
Referral: 
COM(2020) 94 final
Rapporteur: 
Gerardo LARGHI (Italy)
Co-rapporteur: 
Gonçalo LOBO XAVIER (Employers - GR I/Portugal)

The EESC supports the Commission's 'Long-term action plan for better implementation and enforcement of single market rules' and endorses the Communication on Identifying and tackling barriers to the single market.
The EESC believes that the insufficient or inadequate application of EU rules has been the Achilles heel of EU law and that therefore many instances of fraud and illegal behaviour have not been dealt with. It urges the Commission to include in the action plan a clearly defined role for civil society actors, entrepreneurs, workers and consumers.

Taxation – qualified majority voting

Antagna on 17/07/2019
Dokumentreferens:

COM(2019) 8 final COM(2019) 8 final
Rapporteur: 
Krister ANDERSSON (Employers - GR I/Sweden), Mihai IVAŞCU (/Romania), Juan MENDOZA CASTRO (/Spain) (Employers - GR I / Sweden)

In the opinion, the Committee states that taxation policy in general and combating tax fraud in particular must remain a priority for the next European Commission. In this line, the EESC endorses a debate on gradually shifting to QMV and the ordinary legislative procedure in tax matters, while recognising that all Member States must at all times have sufficient possibilities to participate in the decision-making process.  Moreover, the Committee believes that any new rule must be fit-for-purpose and that certain conditions need to be met to successfully implement QMV: a sufficiently strong EU budget; better coordinated economic policy; and a substantial analytical work assessing to what extent current tax measures have been insufficient.

Blockchain and distributed ledger technology as an ideal infrastructure for Social Economy (Own-initiative opinion)

Antagna on 17/07/2019
Dokumentreferens: 
INT/880-EESC-2019-005220-00-00-ac-tra
Rapporteur: 
Giuseppe GUERINI (Diversity Europe - GR III / Italy)

The EESC believes that the practical applications of blockchain technologies can significantly improve the performance of social economy organisations, benefiting them, their members and, above all, their end users. Besides, the EESC believes that real involvement of social economy and civil society organisations is imperative to ensure that the huge opportunities offered by the new technologies are geared towards delivering benefits, access, transparency and participation for all, and not just for a new "digital economy elite".

Co-rapporteur: 
Juan MENDOZA CASTRO (Spain)

With this opinion the EESC welcomes the Commission's strong message on reinforcing the Single Market and the need for commitment from all Member States and citizens. The EESC calls for a Single Market that must be perceived as an opportunity to reassert European values, fundamental rights and duties to achieve progress and welfare for all Member States and citizens. Values like liberty, economic growth, democracy, peace, science and innovation, political stability, consumers and social rights must be present in citizens' mindset as a result of a process that started 60 years ago.

Harmonised standards: Enhancing transparency and legal certainty for a fully functioning Single Market

Antagna on 20/03/2019
Dokumentreferens: 
INT/879-EESC-2019
Referral: 
COM(2018) 764 final
Rapporteur: 
Gerardo LARGHI (Italy)

A European standardisation system that functions well contributes to overall economic growth, supports innovation and global competitiveness of the European industry. It also helps to ensure that the levels of safety, health and consumer and environmental protection set out in Union legislation are met in practice. It also facilitates market access while contributing to a continuous deepening of the Single Market and providing the necessary legal certainty.
