Their record over time
SCOPE Europe filed 2 positions between 10 Dec 2020 and 24 Mar 2023, across 2 of the 583 legislative files tracked here, attaching a full position paper 2 times.
What they argued
Please, find the detailed joint-feedback as attachment. Following the key messages: 1. It is strongly recommended to extend the understanding of enforcement by integrating complementing tools, such as Codes of Conduct, into the evaluation by the European Commission. Codes of Conduct strongly support harmonization across Europe, by allowing for particularizing ambiguous interpretations in sector-specific manners.
