The review of the Cybersecurity Act (CSA 2.0) is an opportunity to build a more coherent, outcome-oriented EU cybersecurity framework. While the proposal recognises fragmentation across the Single Market, further simplification is needed to reduce overlaps and support effective compliance.

A harmonised approach to risk assessment and supervision can strengthen resilience while avoiding duplicative obligations. Certification and supply-chain measures should remain risk-based, objective, technical and aligned with international standards. Structured industry engagement and clear designation thresholds under the ICT Supply Chain Framework and a secure-by-design approach to policymaking will be essential to support cybersecurity and global interoperability. Read more on how CSA 2.0 can strengthen resilience across the Single Market.

The EU’s agri-food regulatory framework is fragmented and lacks predictability. The Food and Feed Safety Omnibus is a chance to address these shortcomings by reducing delays, improving consistency and easing compliance burdens that limit market access. 

Uncertainty discourages investment and slows the uptake of new solutions. A more proportionate approach can improve legal certainty and support more consistent implementation across Member States. At the same time, maintaining a science-based, risk-based approach to trade measures is necessary to safeguard food security and avoid supply disruptions. 

Together with 14 other associations, AmCham EU has signed a joint statement on the European Commission’s Digital Omnibus on AI, calling for a clear, simple and innovation-friendly implementation of the AI Act. Co-legislators should swiftly reach an agreement on an ambitious final text that keeps simplification at its core. Measures to streamline overlaps with existing EU legislation and improve legal certainty are essential, alongside targeted adjustments to ensure the framework remains practical. This includes extending grace periods for generative AI labelling requirements, ensuring greater legal clarity for AI systems entering the EU market, preserving the risk-based approach of the AI Act by exempting non high-risk systems from registration, and supporting fixed compliance deadlines for high-risk systems.
