What the Commission proposes
The European Commission proposes a revision of EU public procurement rules through a new regulation that repeals the existing 2014 directives on public procurement, utilities, and concessions. The initiative aims to modernize and simplify rules, reduce administrative burdens, and enable preferences for European products in strategic sectors to secure supply chains and add EU value. It also amends multiple sector-specific regulations and directives containing procurement provisions to improve coherence and transparency. Furthermore, the proposal addresses high administrative burdens and legal uncertainty identified in previous evaluations regarding public buyers and businesses.
- Revises and replaces Directives 2014/23/EU, 2014/24/EU, and 2014/25/EU with a single Public Procurement Act regulation.
- Enables preference for European products in strategic sectors to ensure security of supply and EU added value.
- Aims to modernize and simplify rules, specifically considering EU start-ups and innovators.
- Amends various sector-specific regulations and directives that contain public procurement provisions.
- Addresses administrative burdens and legal uncertainty that currently affect public buyers and businesses, including SMEs.

Omnibus on taxation EU corporate tax reform and anti avoidance measures are core to financial transparency and combating tax abuse.
Full consultation page Answer on the Commission's site
What the Commission proposes
The proposal introduces a Council Directive, known as the Omnibus on Taxation, which amends six existing directives in the field of direct taxation to simplify the EU corporate tax framework and support business growth and competitiveness. It aims to reduce administrative and compliance burdens for cross-border activities while maintaining high standards of protection against tax avoidance and abusive practices. The initiative aligns existing rules with international tax developments, such as the Pillar Two global minimum tax, and addresses procedural and legal obstacles in areas like withholding taxes and corporate reorganisations. Overall, the measures seek to improve legal certainty and ensure the coherent functioning of the internal market without lowering tax standards.
- Amends Directives 2003/49/EC, 2009/133/EC, 2011/96/EU, (EU) 2016/1164, (EU) 2017/1852, and (EU) 2025/50.
- Simplifies the Union framework on direct taxation to reduce compliance costs for businesses.
- Eliminates overlapping provisions and addresses practical issues arising from the interaction with the Pillar Two Directive.
- Removes procedural barriers and legal uncertainty linked to withholding tax relief.
- Maintains existing safeguards and high levels of protection against tax avoidance and evasion.
What is asked: Respondents expressed their views on simplifying existing EU tax rules to improve the functioning of the internal market and enhance Europe's attractiveness for investment and business.

Eurojust Regulation Revision Eurojust judicial cooperation and crime mandates directly connect to investigating and prosecuting cross border corruption and financial crime.
Full consultation page Answer on the Commission's site
What the Commission proposes
The European Commission proposes a new regulation on the European Union Agency for Criminal Justice Cooperation (Eurojust) to repeal and replace Regulation (EU) 2018/1727. This initiative responds to an evaluation showing that while Eurojust is indispensable, its operations need greater efficiency and a wider mandate to tackle modern cross-border crime. The proposal expands Eurojust's competence into emerging areas such as cybercrime, gender-based violence, and violations of EU restrictive measures, while transforming it into a more proactive analytical hub. It also aims to streamline the agency's internal structure and improve cooperation with partners like Europol and the European Public Prosecutor Office.
- Repeals and replaces Regulation (EU) 2018/1727 to establish a renewed legal framework for Eurojust.
- Expands Eurojust's mandate to cover emerging crime areas including cybercrime, gender-based violence, and violations of EU restrictive measures.
- Transforms Eurojust from a reactive coordination body into a strategic and analytical hub for cross-border judicial cooperation.
- Standardises National Members' status and powers to improve governance and operational efficiency.
- Addresses findings from the 2025 evaluation regarding complex decision-making, wide case scope, and slow procedures with third countries.
- Aligns with related revisions of the Europol Regulation, the European Investigation Order Directive, and the European Union Data Protection Regulation.
What is asked: The Commission sought the views of citizens, Member States, and other relevant stakeholders on Eurojust and the Eurojust Regulation via an online public consultation to inform the impact assessment for the revision of the Eurojust Regulation.

- Ensure that interoperability features are designed with strict data control principles such as source authority and auditability.
At implementation stage, we recommend that interoperability be designed around source authority, provenance, purpose limitation, lifecycle control and auditability.
- Treat automated matching or analytical results as derived intelligence rather than authoritative evidence.
Automated matching or analytical results should be treated as derived intelligence, not as authoritative evidence or a substitute for prosecutorial or judicial decision-making.
- Measure data quality, false matches, and the effectiveness of human oversight during implementation and evaluation.
We therefore recommend that implementation and future evaluation measure not only the volume or speed of data exchange, but also data quality, false matches, manual follow-up, provenance completeness, correction propagation and the effectiveness of human oversight.
- Ensure that interoperability features are designed with strict data control principles such as source authority and auditability.

Tackling unjustified territorial supply constraints in the Single Market Territorial supply constraints fragment the Single Market and affect consumer choice and prices, which sits within TI EU's economy and single market interests, though anti-corruption is only indirect.
Full consultation page Answer on the Commission's site
What the Commission proposes
The European Commission has launched a public consultation on territorial supply constraints, which are limitations imposed by large manufacturers to prevent retailers from buying products in one Member State and reselling them in another. These practices fragment the Single Market, limit consumer choice, and lead to significant price differences for daily consumer goods across the EU. The initiative aims to introduce new tools to address these constraints beyond situations currently captured by competition law, as announced in the May 2025 Single Market Strategy. This consultation gathers input from stakeholders to better understand the impact and scale of these supply restrictions.
- Territorial supply constraints hinder retailers from buying goods in one Member State to resell in another
- Such practices fragment the Single Market and limit consumer choice
- They contribute to significant price differences for daily consumer goods across the EU
- The initiative follows the Single Market Strategy announced in May 2025
- New tools are proposed to address these constraints beyond existing competition law
What is asked: Respondents are asked to provide information and comments on territorial supply constraints, their impact on the Single Market, consumer choice, and retail prices, as well as views on potential tools to address them.
