Single Market Act (Communication)

The majority of measures proposed by the Commission are qualified to advance the integration of the single market. Motivated by industrial policy, however, and therefore to be rejected, is the Commission’s attempt to privilege investments which have been politically chosen by the strategy “Europe 2020” and the proposal to use public procurement as a lever for innovation, green policy or employment. To be equally rejected is the planned issuing of project-related bonds through the Commission, as in fact, this falls under the responsibility of the European Investment Bank.
