The European Parliament's internal market committee approved on 21 April 2016 a report proposing ways to unleas the full potential of the single market to the benefit of consumers, employee and businesses.

The priorities of this report include eliminating unjustified barriers to trade, helping SMEs and start-ups to scale up their activities, reforming VAT rules, developing legislative tools to foster the sharing economy and building a strong culture of compliance and enforcement.

This report intended to be the parliament's response to the communication released by the European Commission in October 2015 on deepening the single market.
