The 2016 EC proposal revises the Consumer Protection Cooperation (CPC) Regulation 2006/2004 with the intention to improve the effectiveness of the rules and procedures on cooperation of national authorities responsible for the enforcement of consumer protection laws, in particular with the aim to better addressing the challenges of the Digital Single Market. The proposal for a Regulation (repealing Regulation 2006/2004) is part of the Commission’s e-Commerce package adopted on 25 May 2016.
The revised provisions would enhance the enforcement mechanisms used by the national authorities to address unlawful practices harmful to consumers in several countries, especially as regards online breaches.
