Objective of the consultation
The Commission has issued a Green Paper launching a public
consultation on possible ways forward to improve access to
information on businesses across the EU and more effective
application of the company law directives. At the same time,
the Commission has published a Progress Report on the
interconnection of European business registers describing
the current legal and factual situation of the access to
information and co-operation between business registers.
In the interests of transparency, organisations have been invited
to provide the public with relevant information about themselves by
registering in the Interest Representative Register and subscribing
to its Code of Conduct. If the organisation is not registered, the
submission is published separately from the registered organisations.
