Proposal for an EU Platform Regulation

Proposal for an EU Platform Regulation

Online platforms have become major economic players over the past decade. It is not surprising, therefore, that their business practices have captured the EU's attention. This resulted in a proposal for a Regulation on transparency and equity in relationships with online platforms. The proposed Regulation will however—apparently unintentionally—not apply to 'underlying service-attached intermediation activities' offered by platforms such as Uber and Deliveroo.
