Introduction and Terms of Reference

There is an increasing volume of legislation affecting e-enabled business operations, and therefore all businesses that trade online.   It is important for online traders to keep abreast of policy developments to ensure that forthcoming legislation does not negatively impact their businesses.  EURIM is working with the E-business Regulatory Alliance, an independent forum that enables a number of organisations to work together to examine the impact of law upon their e-enabled business operations.   They provide regular information on policy developments and help to influence key decision makers.  See  http://www.e-ra.org.uk 

Objectives:  

EURIM's objectives are to support the E-Regulatory Alliance (E-RA) in their work and to disseminate information so that EURIM members and other parliamentarians can be involved in the consultation process before it is too late to influence it. 

More on E-RA's Policy Work 

The E-business Regulatory Alliance is examining in detail specific legislation, regulation and compliance proposals that are of fundamental concern to online traders. They are working closely with government to represent the best interests of their members, and are also collaborating with strategic partners to ensure their proposals and advice to policy makers has the widest support from industry sectors and makes sense. Further information on the forums in which their policy work is set down - our Legal and Compliance Groups - is available at http://www.e-ra.org.uk/policy_work.htm
