We are one step closer to make political ads online more transparent and clearly marked.  

Elections must not be an endless race of dirty methods that misuse our personal data. 

Thank you @europarl_en and @EUCouncil for constructive work today.

Women must know whether their employers treat and value them equally.

For this to happen, we need more transparency on pay levels, starting already at job interviews.

👏I welcome the vote of the @europarl_en on pay transparency.

@EU_Justice This is a second step we take after the successful adoption of Directive 2019/1151 (Digitalisation Directive) 👉https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32019L1151
which focused on setting up companies fully on-line.

We make it easier for EU companies to expand cross boarder w/ less administrative burden & more digitalisation of the single market.

🔹companies will not need to re-submit
information when setting up a branch in another 🇪🇺 State
🔹apostille or certified translations not needed.
