This might look like the traditional industry plea "we do not want to many rules for what we do". However, this is mainly a plea for consistency across EU product legislation areas on topics where there are no good reason for divergence. Such consistency makes compliance a lot simpler even if more areas are regulated. As such, its one of the few tools which can allow politicians to regulate further relevant topics (like cyber security) without too much of a burden on industry.
Poorly crafted legislation can adversely affect Europe’s technology sectors by imposing significant burdens. This then undermines Europe’s appeal for investment, innovation, and progress in the twin green and digital transitions. Orgalim has prepared a series of case studies on excessive regulatory burdens arising from EU legislation. The case studies also include recommendations to ensure that, in the long run, regulation can drive competitiveness. This case study focuses on the unnecessary administrative burden for Declarations of Conformity, instruction manuals and CE marking.
