Commission issues first calls for evidence

Article

The Commission’s research programme has begun in earnest with the issuing of two calls for evidence, on corporate governance and industrial strategy.

With the Government having issued consultation papers of their own on both subjects, the Commission will publish its own analysis and proposals in the spring to contribute to the debate. We are seeking evidence from experts and stakeholders to inform our deliberations. The closing date for both calls is February 13th. More information can be found here.
