The Directive has recently been evaluated. The objective of the evaluation is a comprehensive overview of the functioning of the Directive and an assessment of effectiveness and efficiency. The evaluation should point out problem areas, which could be addressed in a possible review of the Directive to improve and simplify the legislative framework and reduce regulatory costs.
The Commission has launched an Impact Assessment to address the need for a legislative revision of the Directive regarding the more fundamental issues and current inconsistencies.
