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 stakeholders’ submissions to the European Commission’s Public Consultations, which took place in October. The ERCST will present an overview of the initial summary of stakeholder positions followed by a roundtable discussion. If you wish to make your contribution available please contact Dariusz Dybka here.

This meeting is under Chatham House Rules | No press is invited
