On 25 February 2026, the European Parliament’s Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection (IMCO) will host a public hearing on the revision of the Consumer Protection Cooperation Regulation (CPC).
The CPC framework enables national authorities to cooperate across borders, with the support of the European Commission, to ensure effective enforcement of EU consumer protection rules. Its revision is a key step in strengthening enforcement cooperation and ensuring a fair and safe Single Market.
We are pleased to announce that Ilya Bruggeman, Director for Digital, Single Market and Consumer Policy at EuroCommerce, will speak at the hearing. The reform of the CPC Regulation is an important element of our campaign for a level playing field in e-commerce.
The discussion will bring together policymakers, consumer organisations and industry stakeholders to explore how to improve enforcement effectiveness and reinforce cross-border cooperation.
📅 Date: 25 February 2026
🕘 Time: 09:15 – 11:15
📍 Venue: European Parliament, Brussels – SPINELLI 3G3
