Auditions
Une commission peut organiser une audition d'experts lorsqu'elle estime que celle-ci est indispensable pour ses travaux sur une question déterminée. Les auditions peuvent aussi être conduites conjointement par deux commissions ou plus. La plupart des commissions organisent régulièrement des auditions, qui leur permettent de connaître les points de vue d'experts et de débattre sur de grands enjeux. Vous trouverez sur la présente page tous les renseignements utiles sur les auditions organisées par les commissions, notamment les programmes et les interventions des orateurs.

Services accounted for nearly three quarters of the EU’s gross value added and employment in 2024, showing their key economic role. However, the services sector remains the least integrated part of the Single Market due to persistent cross-border barriers that limit innovation, scaling, and business opportunities. Remarkably, 60% of these barriers are the same as 20 years ago. Reducing non-tariff barriers by just 10% could boost EU gross value added by 0.5%.
