AmCham EU offers views on EU's New Consumer Agenda

On Tuesday, 6 October, AmCham EU submitted a response to the public consultation for the upcoming New Consumer Agenda, which will address new challenges for consumers brought by digitalisation and the green transition. AmCham EU is of the view that consumer legislation already provides for sufficiently robust protections of EU consumers. However, gaps in enforcement across the Member States continue to prevail, which harms consumers and diminishes trust. AmCham EU, therefore calls for the EU to focus on harmonised enforcement and consistent implementation of consumer legislation in the EU and at national level.
