Planning of impact assessments – Roadmaps

A roadmap gives a first description of a planned Commission initiative.

Roadmaps, which set out the planned impact assessment work, are prepared for

• those legislative proposals which have significant economic, social and environmental impacts
• non-legislative initiatives (white papers, action plans, expenditure programmes, negotiating guidelines for international agreements) which define future policies
• certain implementing measures (so called 'comitology' items) which are likely to have significant impacts.
