In many EU Member States, the local elections are held simulta- neously with the European elections providing a huge opportunity to link the two election campaigns. Against this background, we would like to provide you with some practical background material and answer your questions on how European decisions in various policy areas influence your municipality by means of this booklet ‘Local Benefi ts of Europe’. This booklet is based on a work that was done by the German Greens lead by Anna Cavazzini and Reinhard Bütikofer. The information can also help you prepare for your local election programmes or campaigns. We place particular emphasis on how the people in your community benefi t practically from Europe, ranging from (Secretary General EGP) environmental protection to structural Mar Garcia policy, and what the Greens in Europe have achieved for European communi- ties. If you need more information on a spe- cifi c topic - no problem: in each chapter, you will fi nd a contact person who has contributed to this handbook and can answer your questions. We hope that this handbook will help you to prepare for the upcoming Euro- pean and local elections. Best regards 1. How do cities and municipalities benefi t from Europe? 5 1.1.

  • Time for the European Commission to Legislate on Collective Redress
    Mr Jean-Claude Juncker President of the Commission Mrs Vera Jourová Commissioner The Consumer Voice in Europe European Commission Rue de la Loi 200 B – 1049 Brussels Ref.: BEUC-X-2017-107 10 October 2017 Subject: Time for the European Commission to legislate on collective redress Dear President Juncker, Dear Commissioner Jourová, I write on behalf of BEUC, The European Consumer Organisation, to ask you to propose a binding legislative measure on collective redress. Consumer rights at EU level have come a long way over the last 20 years. However, the inability of consumers to band together to claim their rights when they have suffered detriment is one of the missing pieces of the jigsaw for EU consumers to access justice. As you are aware, Volkswagen has steadfastly refused to compensate consumers in Europe affected by the emissions scandal. This is in stark contrast to their response in the United States, where the threat of class action has proved decisive in delivering compensation for affected consumers. In your State of the Union speech a few days ago, you said that you are “shocked when consumers are knowingly and deliberately misled” and that you “call on the car industry to come clean and make it right”. We know that despite Commissioner Jourova’s efforts, which we appreciate, the company still refuses to put things right. Since the scandal broke over two years ago, VW remains adamant it will not compensate European car owners. It is now in your hands to decide whether in the future European consumers who have been victims of fraud on a large scale, or who have suffered from a trader’s unfair or illegal practices, should have a realistic chance to be compensated.

  • TTIP-Letter-To-Schul
    Mr. Martin Schulz, President of the European Parliament European Parliament Bât. Paul-Henri Spaak, 09B011 60, rue Wiertz B-1047 Bruxelles 7 July 2016 Dear Mr. Schulz, In anticipation of the 14th round of negotiations between the EU and US for the Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) planned to start on 11 July in Brussels, we are writing to you on behalf of over 65 organisations representing consumers, farmers, not-for-profit health insurers, environmental and general public interest groups to express our serious concerns that the European Commission is failing to respect the European Parliament’s 2015 Resolution on TTIP. 1 Today, we released new analysis, which demonstrates that the European Commission continues to ignore critical aspects of the European Parliament’s Resolution on TTIP, in particular regarding recommendations related to protecting public health, the environment, and democracy. 1. Negotiating on and affecting EU chemicals and pesticides rules The European Parliament has called on the European Commission not to negotiate on issues “where the EU and the US have very different rules” and not to allow regulatory cooperation to affect future standards in such areas. However, the European Commission has continued to negotiate on issues that will affect legislation on chemicals, pesticides, and cosmetic products, whether directly or through regulatory cooperation. This is particularly worrying because the European Commission is already lowering current EU standards of protection (such as on limits to pesticide residues in food) in order to remove barriers to trade. 2. Respect for the EU regulatory system The European Parliament has called on the European Commission “to fully respect the established regulatory systems on both sides of the Atlantic”.
