As part of the European Green Deal, implementation of a BCA is once again being considered as a measure to address competitiveness concerns within the EU. According to the roadmap for the European Green Deal, and European Council conclusions from July, a proposal for a BCA for “selected sectors” will be released in 2021 and should be introduced by the end of 2022. 

This session will focus on the evolution of the debate and the own initiative of the European Parliament. As the plenary vote is planned at the session of March 8^th, it will be great opportunity to take stock and see how its results go along the work of the European Commission.
