  2. One EU law, or 27 national ones?

    Wants changes
    Call for evidence (2025) · 29 Sep 2025

    Implement the single legal form as a regulation, not a directive, to avoid 27 national variants and ensure direct applicability across all EU countries.

    “The European Parliaments proposal calls for a directive instead of a regulation, though. An implementation via a directive would not accomplish the intended goals of real simplification and transparency, though. We need a regulation in order to avoiod 27 national variants. As a regulation, the regime would be directly applicable across all EU countries.”
