Highlights - Action plan on the reinforcement of SOLVIT: Legislative scrutiny time - Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection

On 25 September, IMCO hold a scrutiny session with the Commission on the SOLVIT Action Plan which was published on 2 May as part of the Compliance Package. In the Action Plan, the Commission announces that it will build on the successes of SOLVIT, a free of charge service which provides rapid and pragmatic solutions to people and companies all over Europe when they experience difficulties with public administrations while moving or doing business cross-border in the EU.

The Action Plan aims to increase the use of SOLVIT by making sure that more citizens and businesses can easily access it and by improving data collection so that evidence from SOLVIT cases can be used to improve the functioning of the Single Market.
