The IMCO Committee is currently considering the Commission's proposals for a modernisation of the EU public procurement rules, including, more specifically, the revision of Directive 2004/18/EC ("Classic Directive") and of Directive 2004/17/EC ("Utilities Directive"). Public procurement is the process used by government institutions, public sector organisations and certain undertakings in the utilities sectors to buy supplies, services and public works. Such expenditure is a significant and influential component of the economy. The reform seeks to make the existing rules more flexible and easier to apply, to enable a greater strategic use of public purchasing power (to achieve green, social and innovation-related objectives) and to increase the use of new procurement techniques and tools such as joint buying and e-procurement. This work follows the adoption by the European Parliament of an IMCO own initiative report (rapporteur: Heide Rühle, Greens) in late 2011, in response to the Commission's Green Paper consultation.
 
The European Commission presented its proposal and the Impact Assessment to the IMCO Members on 9th January 2012. The first exchange of views took place on 29th February 2012.

Online gambling
On 20 February AM, Members will have an exchange of views on the own-initiative report on online gambling in the internal market. Fair offer of gambling services is necessary for consumer protection because in its absence consumers are more likely to turn to unreliable and non-credible gambling websites falling outside of the remit of public oversight and regulation.

Constance Le Grip
The IMCO Committee is currently considering a legislative report on Union Customs Code (recast). The purpose of the recast is three-fold. Firstly the proposal aims at postponing the date of application allowing for a phased, binding but realistic implementation of new, electronic-based processes. The transitional periods and measures should not go beyond 31 December 2020. Secondly, the proposal removes the three comitology procedures, currently provided for in the MCC and replaces them either by a delegation of powers or by implementing powers. This is done in accordance with the criteria, principles and rules laid own in Article 290 and 291 of the Treaty on the functioning of the European Union and the new "comitology" Regulation (EU) No 182/2011. Thirdly, the proposal adjusts some provisions in the current customs legislation which are either no longer in line with the changes introduced, since the adoption of the MCC in 2008, or have revealed difficult to implement through sound measures and workable processes.
 
In view of the current provisions in force, it should be aimed for the rapid adoption of the proposal to allow for its entry into force by 24 June 2013 the latest.
