The Chamber appreciates the Commission’s commitment to robust economic recovery efforts. We believe, however, that any measures contemplated should not run directly counter to the aim of a multilateral negotiation to which the EU has committed itself. We therefore strongly encourage the EU to focus its efforts on reaching a consensus at OECD level, to refrain from pursuing any such a measure while those negotiations are ongoing, and to avoid adopting any additional levy above and beyond what is agreed at the OECD.
