The Commission proposed a regulation establishing the Single Market and Customs Programme for the period 2028-2034, which would bring together four existing programmes under one consolidated framework supporting the Single Market, the Customs Union, tax cooperation and the fight against fraud.

Parliament adopted its position at first reading on this proposal, setting out its amendments to the text.

Parliament called on the Commission to refer the matter to Parliament again if it replaces, substantially amends or intends to substantially amend its proposal, and instructed its President to forward its position to the Council, the Commission and the national parliaments.
