REPORT Towards a more sustainable single market for business and consumers

The vote calls for the EU Commission to “develop and introduce mandatory labelling, to provide clear, immediately visible and easy-to-understand information to consumers on the estimated lifetime and reparability of a product at the time of purchase.”This won’t change anything immediately—it’s a call for the government to work on setting up these initiatives—but it is a major vote of confidence in us and a huge step forward. It sets the stage nicely for implementation of the French labeling system and US state Right to Repair bills in January.Credit for this goes to our allies across #Europe. French MEP David Cormand is a real hero of the revolution!
