Brussels, 06/01/2012 (Agence Europe) - In an effort to boost the digital single market, the European Commission will, on Wednesday 11 January, present an action plan on e-commerce and other online services with a target of doubling, by 2015, the share of the internet economy in the EU GDP, as well as that of online sales. The Commission will also announce an initiative on procedures for “notifying-and-action” on illegal content which, in particular, should contribute to combating online illegality and enhancing legal certainty for online intermediaries. The action plan proposed should contribute to: - better access of consumers to products and services sold online across the EU (including music or films); - an easier way to buy and pay for products online; - more efficient and affordable delivery of prod²ucts across Europe; - more transparency on operators and prices on the internet; - high speed internet and better communication infrastructure for more citizens; - and better information and protection against abuses on the internet. These initiatives aim to complete EU legislation on electronic commerce. (LC/transl.jl)
