Commission publishes Internal Market Scoreboard


Member States are in line with the new 1.0% target agreed by Heads of State in implementing agreed Internal Market rules into national law, according to the European Commission’s latest Internal Market Scoreboard.

Member States are in line with the new 1.0% target agreed by Heads of State in implementing agreed Internal Market rules into national law, according to the European Commission’s latest Internal Market Scoreboard.

 

The overall trend is also positive as regards correct application of Internal Market rules: 15 Member States have managed to reduce the number of infringement proceedings against them. However, the overall number of these proceedings remains relatively high and it takes too long to resolve them.

 

“However, some Member States such as Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, Austria and Poland reversed their positive trend”, Commissioner McCreevy said. “They need to redouble their efforts to get back on the right track.”
