The aforementioned Associations welcome the possibility to have the first exchange of views on the Report of the Wise Persons Group concerning the Reform of the EU Customs Union1 at the last meeting of the Trade Contact Group on 12th July 2022.
We also acknowledged that the Call for evidence/public consultation was opened on 20th July 2022 on the Reform of the Union customs legislation and although the time to provide feedback was limited due to the holiday period, most of our Associations have transmitted their feedback.
In addition to our feedback provided and given the far-reaching consequences of the proposals under development, we would be obliged if more information could be provided on when and how the Members of the Trade Contact Group will be consulted on the concrete legal text of the proposal of the EU Commission.
