A keynote address in the European Parliament

On 18 October 2017 Prof Dr Anne Schäfer, M.A. gave a key note speech at a meeting hosted by Member of the European Parliament (MEP) Lieve Wierinck and MEP Dr. Peter Liese in the European Parliament (Brussels).

In January 2017 the European Commission presented a proposal for a “Directive on a proportionality test before adoption of new regulation of professions”. At the meeting members of the European Parliament, stakeholders of the health care professions, representatives of the European Commission, and the Council of the European Union discussed the proposal. Prof. Dr. Anne Schäfer, M.A. evaluated the proposal with “10 theses on the proportionality test concerning the regulated (health) professions in the past and in future”.
