Statute for a European Company (SE)

The presidency took note of the interest shown by the Council in continuing to examine appropriate solutions for introducing a Statute for a European Company, which remained an important objective in the process of completing the internal market. A large majority of the delegations hoped that solutions would be found to this and other problems, in light of the communication from the Commission on procedures for informing and consulting the workforce, and demonstrated their willingness to continue with this work while at the same time taking into consideration the guidelines that the Social Affairs Committee was to produce on the subject of the said communication.
