New EU better regulation strategy likely to improve EU policy-making

Following the release today of the European Commission Better Regulation Package, BUSINESSEUROPE Director General Markus J. Beyrer said: ‘Better regulation is essential to improve competitiveness, growth and employment. All EU institutions must work together to put better regulation at the centre of the political agenda. We welcome many of the initiatives set out in the new strategy, including better impact assessments throughout the legislative process, and more independent quality advice to improve EU laws.’
