EU Commission: Proposal for simpler, clearer and better enforced EU rules
- 1 Minute Lesezeit
On 28 April 2025 the EU Commission presented its plan to modernize EU lawmaking, ensuring that laws are clearer, simpler, more efficiently enforced, based on solid evidence and better aligned with the needs of citizens and businesses.
At a time of profound global shifts, an efficient and effective regulatory framework is essential for European competitiveness. Simpler, better-designed, and easier-to-implement rules will therefore help to unlock economic potential and promote a more dynamic and integrated Single Market.
The Commission identified five areas of action:
Simplicity by design: Ensuring clarity with every EU proposal which must be easy to understand, apply and enforce.
Strengthening the better regulation framework: New initiatives will be further improved to enhance transparency and efficiency.
Regulatory deep cleaning by puting its large stock of existing legislation in order.
Tackling regulatory gold-plating: Unnecessary complexity and barriers to the Single Market should be identified and modified.
Faster, robust enforcement of the Single Market rulebook in selected policy areas.
More details to be found in the press release of the EU Commission of 28 April 2026.
