Highlights - The DSA and DMA - a forward-looking and consumer-centered : workshop - Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection

On 26 May, IMCO will hold a workshop on the Digital Services Act (DSA) and Digital Markets Act (DMA). The discussions of the workshop aim to feed into the DSA and the DMA reports of the IMCO committee, setting out the Parliament’s political response.

The first panel will explore issues covered by the DSA proposal, namely the fragmentation of the single market for services, the responsibilities of intermediaries and the problems faced by consumers when using online platforms and digital services or accessing content, as well as issues related to supervision and enforcement. The aim of the second panel is to explore more in-depth some of the issues covered by the DMA proposal, namely the role that a few online platforms play in the digital economy and the need to ensure a fair and contestable online platform environment to the benefit of consumers.
