EU Releases TTIP Proposals on Cosmetics, Medical Devices, Cars, Chemicals, Textiles

摘要

New European Union proposals in trade talks with the U.S. are aimed at simplifying technical regulations in the cosmetics, medical devices, cars, chemicals and textiles sectors, the European Commission said July 14. The proposals set out the EU's position on regulatory cooperation in these sectors in the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) talks, which are aimed at cutting red tape for companies operating in both markets and helping regulators by eliminating du-plicative inspections.
