On 29 January, the European Commission published its report on the existing regulatory and voluntary frameworks for tackling unfair trading practices in the food supply chain. The Commission concluded that there would be no added value in a specific harmonised regulatory approach at EU level at this stage.
The Commission will continue to monitor the situation and, before the end of its mandate, it will re-assess its position on harmonised regulation.
