Book excerpt: European Parliament legislative-initiative reports drawn up on the basis of Article 225 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union are automatically accompanied by a European added value assessment (EAVA). Such assessments are aimed at evaluating the potential impacts, and identifying the advantages, of proposals made in legislative-initiative reports. This EAVA accompanies a resolution based on a legislative-initiative report prepared by the European Parliament's subcommittee on Tax Matters (FISC), presenting recommendations to the European Commission on avenues to follow to support the Next Generation EU recovery and lower compliance costs and improve EU corporate income taxation. The main purpose of the EAVA is to identify possible gaps in European Union (EU) legislation. The various policy options to address this gap are then analysed and their potential costs and benefits assessed.
Download or read book European Added Value Assessment on the Application of the Principle of Equal Pay for Men and Women for Equal Work of Equal Value written by and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women across the European Union bring home 16.2% less than their male counterparts in the EU. This figure is more than just a statistic: it has real-life consequences for the women concerned, for their families and for society at large. The European Parliament firmly believes that reducing the pay gap remains a political priority. It is not only about economic empowerment, it is also a matter of social justice. This EU Added Value Assessment supports the European Parliament's view and takes the view that reducing the gender pay gap, in particular by revising Directive 2006/54/EC, could be very beneficial, not only for individuals but also for society in general. It would help achieve inclusive growth and ensure economic and social cohesion and competitiveness, in line with the objectives set in the Europe 2020 Strategy.

Download or read book European Added Value Assessment on a EU Legislative Instrument on Information and Consultation of Workers Anticipation and Management of Restructuring Processes written by Usman Khan and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This assessment note has been commissioned by the European Added Value Unit of the European Parliament. The objective of the study is to evaluate the economic and social impact of EU legislation relating to the consultation of workers as well as the anticipation and management of restructuring processes. In our assessment, we have focussed on the impact of early consultation and training. Our research indicates there can be a positive impact of both early consultation and training on job security and employability of workers affected by restructuring. The aggregate level of impact across the EU will be reduced by the fact that a number of Member States already have in place early consultation and training at or above current proposed levels. Aggregate impact will also be dependant on both the level and geographic distribution of any future restructuring. A European framework of minimum standards could be beneficial in addressing these issues but compliance at Member State and company level needs to be taken into account. In addition, given the fragmented evidence base on restructuring, establishing permanent monitoring bodies as foreseen by the Draft Report would be beneficial for future planning and assessment purposes.

Book excerpt: On 4 June 2012, the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs (EMPL) requested a European Added Value Assessment (EAVA) to support its work on the legislative initiative report of Alejandro Cercas with recommendations to the Commission on Information and consultation of workers, anticipation and management of restructuring processes (2012/2061(INI)). In its report, the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs calls on the Commission to submit a proposal for a legal act. The arguments in favour of this approach are set out in detail in this EAVA, which has been drawn up by the European Added Value Unit of the Directorate for Impact Assessment and European Added Value, within the Directorate-General for Internal Policies (DG IPOL) of the European Parliament.
Download or read book European Added Value Assessment written by Patrice Muller and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present European Added Value Assessment highlights the benefits for EU citizens and businesses that would arise from a better and more effective application of Directives and Regulations and a deepening of the Single Market. It draws on available studies, impact assessments and evaluations in a limited number of sectors (services, digital economy and transport). The information available suggests that alone in the services and digital economy sectors, policy action to improve the application of Directives and Regulations and deepen the Single Market could raise the level of long-term EU27 GDP by at least 3.8%. While similar quantitative information is not available for the other Directives (Professional Qualifications, Airport Charges and Electronic Toll) reviewed in the present note, the available information shows that a better application of existing Directives, and an update of these in some cases, would yield substantial benefits to EU citizens and businesses in terms of lower costs, higher incomes and greater opportunities.

Download or read book Fair and Simpler Taxation Supporting the Recovery Strategy Ways to Improve Exchange of Information and Compliance to Reduce the VAT Gap written by Jérôme Saulnier and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Member States have agreed that the definitive VAT reform in the EU should proceed only if it can be demonstrated that its impact on reducing the VAT gap is substantial and if the burden on businesses is also reduced. This study analyses these issues in detail, with a view to identifying possible challenges for the EU and on evaluating the European Added Value (EAV) of potential policy options to address these challenges. The study also includes a thorough comparative economic analysis of the EAV of a series of scenarios based upon the policy options identified. The results confirm that complexity remains the main factor behind both the VAT gap and the high level of compliance costs for businesses in all scenarios. Regarding the impact of each scenario compared to the baseline in 2025, the study finds an EAV of around €39 billion for the scenario of extended cooperation with exchange of information and a one-stop shop. This can be broken down into a reduction of the VAT gap of around €29 billion, and a reduction of the compliance costs for businesses of almost €10 billion. A slightly higher EAV of around €45 billion is found for the scenario of extended cooperation with a definitive VAT regime and a one-stop shop. Finally, a higher EAV of €71 billion is found for the most ambitious scenario, including establishment of an EU treasury and VAT administered at EU level. This most ambitious scenario is, however, rather unlikely to gather sufficient support at the current juncture and would also require substantial Treaty change. As the definitive VAT regime continues to be delayed, this evaluation also emphasises the potential for a scenario of extended cooperation through reinforced exchange of information and a one-stop shop. However, the extent to which Member States are likely to coordinate a concerted move, as assumed by some commentators, remains to be demonstrated at this stage.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A general Law of Administrative Procedure for the EU, based on Article 298 TFEU, and limited to the direct institutions, bodies, offices and agencies, of the Union would help to establish a single set of easily identifiable and comprehensible rules and standards that could increase guarantees for citizens, economic operators, NGOs and other legal persons across the board.
Download or read book Digital Services Act written by Niombo Lomba and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study analyses the potential European added value (EAV) that could be achieved by enhancing the current EU regulatory framework on digital services. The scope of the assessment includes the analysis of the e-Commerce Directive and more broadly of commercial and civil law rules applicable to commercial entities operating online. The EAV is assessed quantitatively and qualitatively. Based on the comparative legal analysis, 22 main gaps and risks that currently affect provision of online services in the EU are identified, and policy solutions are proposed to address these shortcomings. The results of macroeconomic modelling suggest that taking common EU action to enhance consumer protection and common e-commerce rules, as well as to create a framework for content management and curation that guarantees business competitiveness and protection of rights and freedoms, would potentially add at least €76 billion to the EU GDP over the 20202030 period. This quantitative estimate provides a lower bound of direct economic impacts, and does not quantify/monetise the EAV of qualitative criteria, such as consumer protection, coherence of the legal system and fundamental rights. Therefore, the overall European added value would be considerably higher.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This note examines current regulation, practice and public policy in the areas dealt with by the possible EU legislative initiative on restructuring; outlines the possible effects of EU action and the likely scenario without such action; and considers a range of arguments as to whether EU-level action would add value and, if so, what sort of action. It concludes that factors such as the economic crisis, transnational restructuring, the present lack of convergence and of a coherent common approach to the issue, and the scope to help the current EU legal framework deliver its potential more effectively, may present strong arguments for an EU legislative initiative.
Download or read book European Added Value Assessment on a Directive on the Cross border Transfer of Company Seats 14th Company Law Directive written by Patrice Muller and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the present time, there exist only two indirect mechanisms for a company wishing to move cross-border its registered office within the EU without having to wind up the company in its home country. The company can either adopt the legal form of a Societas Europaea if it is a public company or undertake a cross-border merger with a company (already existing or specially established for this purpose) in the host country. A Directive which provides for a simple, cost-efficient process for transferring cross-border the registered office of a company would yield significant savings for companies wishing to do so.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are a number of weaknesses in the existing national legal frameworks regarding social enterprises and this European added value assessment (EAVA) attempts to identify them. It goes on to argue that action at EU level would generate economic and social added value and presents a qualitative analysis of possible policy options and qualitative estimates of the possible additional value of taking legislative action at EU level in connection with a statute on social enterprises. The EAVA also identifies the economic and social costs associated with the implementation of each one of the identified options. Finally, it compares the various options on the basis of a set of criteria.
