The ESPN Flash Reports are produced by the European Social Policy Network (ESPN) established in 2014 to provide the European Commission with independent information, analysis and expertise on social policies. The topics presented in the Flash Reports are identified by ESPN experts in the light of significant developments in their countries, or in some cases suggested by the Commission.

The ESPN is managed by LISER and APPLICA, with the support of OSE - European Social Observatory. For more information, please visit this website.
In December 2015, the Swiss parliament refused to permanently ban the new admission of doctors. Instead, the parliament asked the national government to propose a new temporary solution. The restriction on the admission of doctors will probably be extended until 2019.
