✦ Synopsis

On 18 November, the European Commission announced "a proposal for a European Parliament and Council Directive on certain legal aspects of electronic commerce in the Internal Market". Single Market Commissioner, Mario Monti, commented, "electronic commerce adds a new dimension to the Single Market for consumers in terms of easier access to goods and services of better quality and at lower prices. Electronic commerce will promote trade, stimulate innovation and competitiveness and create sustainable jobs. This proposal should ensure that the Union reaps the full benefits of electronic commerce by boosting consumer confidence and giving operators legal certainty, without excessive red tape:' This article reviews the Commission's plans.
