Episode Description

This episode provides an in-depth review of recent regulatory developments affecting multiple sectors including interest rates, public procurement, child protection, statistical reporting, and enforcement within the European Union.

The European Central Bank announced a 25 basis point increase in its key interest rates, reaffirming its data-dependent approach amid ongoing inflation pressures. This adjustment signals higher borrowing costs and potential market volatility across the euro area.

On the legislative front, discussions on a new EU regulation aim to repeal and amend existing public procurement directives and regulations, heralding significant changes for public authorities and suppliers that will require close attention to compliance.

In France, the new mandatory honorability certificate for professionals working with disabled children now applies nationwide, enhancing child protection through legal background checks and regular certification renewals.
