Strengthening and revitalizing the EU Single Market and the process of European unification according to the wishes of European businesses.

The European Association of Automotive Suppliers has issued a joint statement, urging action to revitalize the European Union's Single Market. The statement highlights the importance of a well-functioning Single Market in incentivizing investment, innovation, and economic growth, and in restoring Europe's competitiveness, particularly in the face of diminishing competitiveness compared to the US and China.

The joint statement identifies several challenges that EU citizens and businesses are currently facing. These include obstacles hindering cross-border business activities, the neglected enforcement of Single Market rules, and the lack of harmonisation in crucial regulatory areas. To address these issues, the statement proposes a comprehensive program to remove barriers within a defined timeframe for a more efficient Single Market.

The European Commission is urged to map and urgently tackle inefficient requirements and barriers faced by companies. The statement emphasizes the need for a simplified and harmonised regulatory framework across EU Member States to promote seamless trade within the EU, while also advocating a balanced approach between strategic autonomy and promoting seamless trade.

In addition, the statement calls attention to the neglected enforcement of Single Market rules and highlights the need to address the cost-of-living crisis. It identifies the need to address the cost-of-living crisis by incentivizing economic growth through a well-functioning Single Market.

It is important to note that this joint statement does not repeat calls for the enforcement of Single Market rules, addressing the diminishing competitiveness of the EU compared to the US and China, or the concern about the lack of harmonisation in crucial regulatory areas. Nor does it repeat the need for a balanced approach between strategic autonomy and promoting seamless trade within the EU.

For the German readership seeking information about the responsible parties for the joint declaration, it is the coalition of 26 civil society and scientific organizations from NRW that jointly developed a position paper promoting democracy, justice, and sustainable development in NRW that is the core group behind the statement.

In conclusion, the joint statement issued by the European Association of Automotive Suppliers underscores the importance of a well-functioning Single Market for the EU's economic growth, competitiveness, and the alleviation of the cost-of-living crisis. The statement's proposed comprehensive program to remove barriers and its emphasis on a simplified and harmonised regulatory framework across EU Member States could pave the way for a more efficient Single Market and a stronger EU.
