Through REFIT, the Commission services have mapped the entire EU legislative stock looking to identify burdens, gaps and inefficient or ineffective measures including possibilities for simplification or repeal. In this document, the initial outcome of the mapping and screening exercise undertaken by the Commission services is presented. In each area, an overview is provided of the policy and legislative framework, smart regulation tools and measures taken to ensure that legislation is 'fit for purpose' (including responses to concerns of SMEs).2 On this basis, the document suggests that consideration be given to further actions envisaged to ensure regulatory fitness. These include: x Proposals already tabled by the Commission with a regulatory fitness focus where the EU legislator needs to take action; x Proposals for legislative review with a regulatory fitness focus; This working document has not been adopted by the Commission. As a Commission staff Working Document, it describes the results of the work done by the Directorates General of the Commission in preparation for a Commission Communication to be adopted in October which will review and set out the next steps in Regulatory Fitness Policy and Programme. 1 COM(2012)746 final 2 The Commission's follow-up to the main concerns raised by SMEs and stakeholders in the context of the 'Top10 Consultation of the most burdensome EU legislative acts for SMEs' was published in COM (2013)446 final. 4 1. AGRICULTURE AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT 1. Policy and legislative responsibilities in the area of Agriculture and Rural Development The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) was set up to achieve the Treaty objectives of agricultural productivity, a fair standard of living for agricultural communities, stabilised markets and the availability of supplies at reasonable prices.3 The CAP is not a regulatory policy as such, though it includes elements of regulatory nature, such as competition rules and marketing standards. Funding schemes, under which farmers and others can apply for support and grants make up most of the policy. Those who obtain funding have to meet certain obligations. The following instruments are at the core of the CAP acquis: x The common market organisation, called the ‘Single CMO’4, which establishes instruments to guarantee the stability of markets for agricultural products. The Commission has adopted specific implementing rules for different product sectors. x A system for direct payments5 that provides farmers with a basic level of income. x The rural development policy6, which provides voluntary support measures that are targeted to national and regional specificities for the enhancement of the competitiveness of the farm sector, the sustainable management of natural resources and climate action, and the balanced territorial development of rural areas. The CAP legislation also establishes specific measures for agriculture in the outermost regions of the EU, support for information and promotion measures, quality schemes for agricultural products and foodstuffs as well as rules on organic production.7 The rules on 3 Cf. Art. 39 (1) Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) 4 Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) 5 Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 of 19 January 2009 establishing common rules for direct support schemes for farmers under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers 6 Cf. Council Regulation (EC) No 74/2009 of 19 January 2009 amending Regulation (EC) No 1698/2005 on support for rural development by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) 7 Regulation (EU) No 228/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 March 2013 laying down specific measures for agriculture in the outermost regions of the Union; Council Regulation (EC) No 3/2008 of 17 December 2007 on information

Vol. 15, Nº 27 (Julio 2019), Art. 15, pp. 520-548 [http://politcrim.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Vol14N27A15.pdf] The European Union Criminal Policy against Corruption: Two Decades of Efforts La política criminal de la Unión Europea contra la corrupción: dos décadas de esfuerzos Demelsa Benito Sánchez Lecturer of Criminal Law – University of Deusto (Spain) [email protected] Abstract Corruption has been in the agenda of the European Union for decades due to its devastating effects on the political and economic systems of the EU Member States, and on the European Union itself. Therefore, with the aim of combating corruption, the European Union has adopted a wide list of legal instruments since the middle of the nineties that Member States shall implement and enforce. This paper offers a critical review of the main instruments, from the first initiatives, adopted already two decades ago, until the most recent ones, focusing on the criminal law obligations they impose on the Member States. Likewise, it analyses the implementation and enforcement of such documents by Member States, with the final purpose of assessing if the European Union criminal policy against corruption is working correctly or, by contrast, needs to be improved. Keywords: Corruption, criminal policy, European Union, Member State, public official. Resumen La corrupción ha estado presente en la agenda de la Unión Europea desde hace décadas debido a sus devastadores efectos sobre los sistemas políticos y económicos de los Estados Miembros, y sobre la propia Unión Europea.

Introduction Our document is concerned with the theme of international cooperation in criminal matters. We focus on a relatively new way of cooperation, which is still in conformation, but already has some special attributes that separate it from the traditional forms. The protection of financial interests of the European Communities has developed together with the integration itself. The community budget as special infringement subject needs special action by the Member States and the EC acting together, in cooperation with each other. This is different from the usual forms of mutual assisstance and develops new ways of cooperation protecting supranational interest utilizing –as we try to present it in our document- means of substantive and procedural law and the case law of the European Court of Justice.

Henryk Niewodniczanski 1900 - 1968 25 years ago, on 20 December 1968, Professor Henryk Niewodniczanski, the founder of our Institute, died. To commemorate this event, we held a small session to recall his achievements as a scientist, teacher and administrator. Professor Niewodniczanski, a brilliant experimental physicist, began his research in the early twenties in the field of atomic optics. He discovered the forbidden dipole magnetic transition in Pb atoms. His interest in nuclear physics was aroused by Lord Rutherford of Nelson in whose laboratory he worked in the middle 'thirties. After World War II Professor Niewodniczariski initiated research in nuclear physics at the Jagellonian University. His enthusiasm and great organizational talent resulted in the establishment of the Institute of Nuclear Physics in Krakow under his directorship.
