Side by side
Consultation participation and their own register declarations, side by side. Counts, not judgments — participation is not influence.
Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 583 consultation files tracked so far (42,224 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.

EDF welcomes the opening of the procedure to establish a European Disability Card. This idea emerged from the disability movement and has been a high priority ever since our Freedom of Movement campaign in 2011. The pilot project showed its feasibility and the opportunities it can bring.

The Belgian Disability Forum (BDF) is the largest forum for associations representing persons with disabilities in Belgium. The BDF welcomes the fact that its proposal for a European Mobility Card from 2008 will finally become a reality with the presence of the European Disability Card (EDC) in all Member States.

First of all, we would like to underline that our initial reception of the proposal is very positive. The proposal will result in binding legislation for both Cards. For many years EDF has campaigned for the European Disability Card, and we, and our extensive membership took part in the policy development process till now; most priorities we highlighted have been included in the proposal.

The EDC is a 'descendant' of the proposal of the Belgian Disability Forum (BDF) for the development of a European disability card dating from 2009. The current Commission proposal therefore almost fully meets the requirements set at the time. Thus, the BDF and all the disability advisory councils in Belgium are very pleased to welcome the proposal!

The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UN CRPD) recognizes the importance of accessibility in enabling persons with disabilities to fully enjoy all human rights and fundamental freedoms, accessible transport and infrastructure being one of them. As a State Party to the UN CRPD, the EU has clear obligations to ensure that the rights of persons with disabilities are fully respected.

The European Green Deal must take account of the importance of rail, including in its dimension of free movement of people. It must become a reality for every citizen, including disabled persons and persons with reduced mobility, without discrimination. Future investments under the European Green Deal need to take this into account.
