Right to redress: MEPs want to know the reason for the delay in publishing the proposal

It was scheduled to be published in 2021, but has been postponed several times, with November 30, 2022 announced as the publication date earlier this year.


However, on October 18, 2022, it was revealed in the media that the right to redress proposal had been postponed again, this time due to a negative assessment by the Regulatory Scrutiny Committee.


It is unacceptable that this central proposal of the Green Deal and the Circular Economy Action Plan has been postponed several times. We therefore ask the Commission:


1. What were the main arguments of the Regulatory Scrutiny Board that led it to issue a negative opinion?
2. Does the Commission intend to make this opinion public, as well as correspondence regarding meetings between the Regulatory Scrutiny Board and external stakeholders, and can the Commission provide a list of impact assessments on which the Regulatory Scrutiny Board has issued negative opinions?
3. When does the Commission intend to publish an updated version of the proposal on the right to redress?
