The impact assessment (IA) identifies four problems relating to slow development and deployment of advanced digital networks in the EU. Relying on the evaluation of the current regulatory framework, the IA discusses the problem drivers, defines specific objectives, and compares and ranks policy options. The objectives are generally well defined. However, the second specific objective refers to closing the high-quality connectivity gap with competing regions without acknowledging that its achievement ...

This study provides an overview of the EU policy instruments, including Cohesion Policy Funds, that are used in natural disaster response and recovery. It assesses their contribution to strengthening resilience to climate change and to meeting disaster-relief and reconstruction needs. The study also examines how the ‘Build Back Better’ approach can be integrated into future Cohesion Policy to ensure that disaster-affected areas are rebuilt in a more resilient and sustainable manner. Recommendations ...

The IA underpins the revision of legislation on precursors to enhancе the monitoring and control of drug and designer precursors in order to reduce the availability of drug precursors for illicit drug manufacturing and to facilitate legitimate trade and use of drug precursors. The IA provides an overall well-structured and evidence-based analysis supporting the legislative proposal on drug precursors. The need for EU action is sufficiently justified and subsidiarity is adequately addressed; however ...

This study assesses how the proposed National and Regional Partnership Plans (NRPPs) Regulation restructures the support relevant to Cohesion Policy and regional development. Based on this analysis, it formulates policy recommendations on how the Proposal could be adjusted to better achieve cohesion objectives. This document was commissioned by the European Parliament’s Policy Department for Regional Development, Agriculture and Fisheries at the request of the Regional Development Committee.

The European Commission drew up seven impact assessments (IAs) in support of 18 programme proposals for the 2028-2034 multiannual financial framework (MFF) and the proposed regulation on a horizontal performance framework. The broad scope of these IAs does not allow individual programme proposals to be assessed in any detail – as is particularly salient in the case of the IA on the national and regional partnership plans, covering nine legislative proposals. All IAs acknowledge a deviation from the ...

This study analyses the role of EU instruments, in particular Cohesion Policy, in supporting the quality of essential services in remote, rural and depopulated areas. The study focuses on essential services tied to the provision of healthcare, childcare and services to people. Challenges and drivers of loss of service provision are identified. The contribution of EU instruments is assessed, including case studies illustrating their contribution to mitigating depopulation dynamics and improving access ...

This briefing focuses on the Impact Assessment (IA) accompanying the 6th revision of the Carcinogens, Mutagens and Reprotoxic substances Directive 2004/37/EC (CMRD). The IA states that more than 170,000 workers still lose their lives each year due to work-related illnesses. The IA identifies five problem drivers and details the consequences. The need for an added value EU action is explained in a subsidiarity grid. The general objective is broken into four specific objectives. The preferred options ...
