BEUC has launched a complaint over a concern that the No-Nutriscore Alliance and Brussels-based consultancy Must & Partners breach the EU Code of Conduct on transparency. BEUC argues that while the European Commission is drafting its position about a future EU-wide front-of-pack nutrition label, it is unfair that some authorised representatives (Must & Partners) may access EU decision makers to voice the concerns of an entity they represent secretly (the No-Nutriscore Alliance).

Thanks to new EU roaming rules entering into force on 1 July, consumers should experience a better quality of service from telecom operators when they travel to another EU country. Until now, it was common for telecom companies to place consumers on a lower speed network when they are roaming than the network speed they get at home.1 From 1 July, that will no longer be possible with the new EU rules, unless it is technically impossible for the operator to provide the same quality of service.
