Article summary

The European Scrutiny Committee (ESC) has published its 40th report on recent draft EU legislation and policy documents deposited in Parliament by the government. The ESC gauges the legal and political importance of each legislative proposal, document or policy and, where appropriate, inquires further on its implications and/or recommends it for debate in Parliament. Subjects identified as legally and/or politically important in this instance include the European Commission's cybersecurity strategy and a proposal for a revised Network and Information Systems Directive, the draft data adequacy decisions for the UK proposed by the European Commission, market access for goods under the Northern Ireland Protocol, and the public country-by-country tax reporting of multinationals in the EU.
