Consumer Policy
Consumer Committee
In its Decision (95/260/EC)
of 13.06.1995, the Commission set up a Consumer Committee which may be
consulted on all matters relating to the protection of consumer interests.
Composed of 20 full members
and 20 alternates appointed by the Commission for a 2-year, once
renewable, mandate (1 per Member State plus 5 representatives from the
European consumer associations: BEUC, COFACE, EURO COOP, IEIC, ETUC), it
meets on average 4 times a year in Brussels.
The Committee:
- constitutes a forum of general discussions on
problems relating to consumer interests,
- gives an opinion on Community matters affecting
the protection of consumer interests, without this necessarily
reflecting the opinion of the national consumer protection
organisations which are not represented within the CC.
- advises and guides the Commission when it
outlines policies and activities having an effect on consumers
- informs the Commission of developments in
consumer policy in the Member States
- acts as a source of information and soundboard on
Community action for the other national organizations.
The secretariat and the presidency of the Committee
are held by the Commission.

299.50.26 - 295.51.41 - 295.71.73.
