European laws should epitomize the principle that “less is more”. With the potential to shape the future for generations to come, EU policies and laws adopted today will have a profound impact on individuals and businesses alike. Guided by the Better Regulation agenda, the EU ensures a meticulous approach to law-making. This involves evidence-based decision-making and a commitment to transparency.
