The European Commission presented its 2027 work programme, which was approved by the College of Commissioners on 4 November 2026. The presentation of the document was conducted by Trade and Economic Security Commissioner Maroš Šefčovič and Executive Vice-President for Prosperity and Industrial Strategy Valdis Dombrovskis. Simultaneously with the work programme, a 2026 Review Report was presented, focusing on regulatory simplification, legislative implementation, and ensuring its enforcement. This report reflects the ongoing efforts of the European Commission to reduce the administrative burden on businesses and citizens, as well as to improve the effectiveness of the application of existing EU regulations. The 2027 work programme sets out the priorities for the Commission's legislative and policy activities in the coming period. The Commissioners stressed the importance of balancing new initiatives with the simplification of existing regulations, which aligns with the EU's overall course toward enhancing the competitiveness of the European economy. The presentation of the document took place in Brussels and was part of the regular planning cycle of European institutions, within which the Commission annually determines the key directions of its activities for the following year.
