BEUC proposals for the 2019-2024 European Commission

Published on 07.10.2019

About this publication

This document contains our five key priorities, as well as a set of further important recommendations, that need to be addressed by the Commission during its 2019-2024 mandate in order for tangible benefits to continue to be delivered to EU consumers. These recommendations not only respond to new developments but also relate to legislation that is
already in the pipeline. In annex, we list the indicators to demonstrate progress towards the achievements of the consumer policy objectives that we set for the next Commission’s agenda.

BEUC's 5 key recommendations: 

  1. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and new technologies must serve, not harm consumers.
  2. Consumer products should last longer.
  3. Consumers should not be exposed to harmful chemicals.
  4. Food labels should make the healthy option the easy option.
  5. Medicines should be accessible and affordable.
