Commission publishes EU work programme 2021

The European Commission has announced its focus for 2021.  As well as continuing to work on managing the effects of the pandemic, its priorities will include:

  • a “Fit for 55” packages to reduce emissions by at least 55% by 2030 as part of the drive to a climate-neutral Europe by 2050;
  • a roadmap of clearly defined targets towards Europe’s “digital decade”, including a new European e-ID; and
  • to strengthen the economy, including revising the BRRD, encouraging cross-border investment and improving AML laws.
