The VAT Committee is currently an advisory committee made up of representatives of the Member States and of the Commission without any competences in the procedure of adoption of implementing measures. This proposal will turn the VAT Committee into a ‘comitology committee’ that would, acting by qualified majority, oversee the adoption of implementing acts by the Commission in the field of value added tax. This should enhance the efficiency of the decision making process in the area of VAT.
This roadmap is open for feedback till Oct 29, 2020. Feedback will be taken into account for further development and fine tuning of the initiative. The Commission will summarise the input received in a synopsis report explaining how the input will be taken on board and, if applicable, why certain suggestions can’t be taken up. Feedback received will be published on this site and therefore must adhere to the feedback rules.
