Defining European success with smart regulation

A report published jointly, on 11 March 2010, by the British, Danish and Dutch governments challenges the way European institutions make decisions and argues that smart EU regulation must mean that businesses and citizens are put at the heart of all European policy-making. The report, 'Smart Regulation: A cleaner, fairer and more competitive EU', shows how smart EU regulation will support growth and recovery in the current economic climate, maximise the European Union’s social and environmental benefits, while reducing burdens and costs.
