Each year ITEM's stakeholders are given the opportunity to make dossier suggestions based on their experiences through a survey. The survey allows you to feed ITEM with issues regarding legislation, policy and enforcement on a European, national and regional level.

Grab the opportunity to share your experiences with ITEM! Dossier suggestions can be made up to and including 19 January 2020.

With its annual Cross-Border Impact Assessment, the ITEM Expertise Centre provides more insight into European and national law and policy initiatives and their effects on border regions. The assessment is intended as a valuable tool for policy makers at regional, national and European level when taking decisions on legislation and regulations with (additional) effects on border regions. More information about the ITEM Cross-Border Impact Assessment as well as the results of the reports from 2016 through 2019 can be found here.
