Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 326 consultation files tracked so far (29,503 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.
Who they are
Among the 1205 trade and business associations on this site, they rank #800 by legislative files engaged — a count of participation, not a measure of influence.

In the telecommunications sector, far-reaching harmonisation must be handled with particular caution. Structural differences in markets, competitive dynamics, as well as geographical and infrastructural conditions across Member States cannot be overlooked. A one-size-fits-all regulatory approach is unacceptable if it risks undermining well-established and effective functioning national and regional structures.

Turns up on the same files
Organizations that also filed on at least two of the same consultations. A shared interest in the same dossiers — not evidence of coordination, and we do not suggest any.
Everything on this page comes from VAT’s own submissions to the European Commission — we have added nothing and interpreted nothing. If something is wrong or out of date, email info@policyspeak.com and we will correct it. If you are an individual named in a record, our privacy policy sets out your rights to correction, objection and removal.
Quotes are verbatim from submissions published by the European Commission, trimmed to their opening passage and never summarized by a model. Organizations only, never individuals. Reused under Commission Decision 2011/833/EU; the European Commission is not liable for this reuse.
