WITHDRAWAL OF COMMISSION PROPOSALS FOLLOWING SCREENING FOR THEIR GENERAL RELEVANCE, THEIR IMPACT ON COMPETITIVENESS AND OTHER ASPECTS

(2006/C 64/03)

Following the screening exercise of proposals pending undertaken as part of its effort for better regulation in the framework of the Partnership for Growth and Jobs in the European Union, the Commission has decided to withdraw certain proposals on which the Legislator has not yet reached a decision and which were found not to be consistent with the Lisbon and Better Regulation criteria, unlikely to make further progress in the legislative process or found to be no longer topical for objective reasons.

The Commission has also decided to withdraw the proposal on port services, 2004/0240/COD.
