Commission seeks input on review of the State aid General Block Exemption Regulation
The European Commission has today launched a Call for Evidence and public consultation to seek input on the scope and content of its review of the General Block Exemption Regulation (‘GBER’). The aim of the review is to reduce red tape for businesses as well as for Member States, and facilitate necessary support for industry. At the same time, EU State aid rules should continue protecting the level playing field within the EU.
Executive Vice-President for Clean, Just and Competitive Transition, Teresa Ribera, said: “Our review of the GBER will cut red tape and promote necessary investments, while keeping a level playing field in the Single Market. We want your input to understand where we can help best. We encourage all public authorities, companies and other interested parties to participate in this very important consultation.“
Interested parties can reply to the questionnaire available here, until 6 October.
