In the context of the Single Market Scoreboard, the Internal Market Strategy and the monitoring of product market performance, the European Commission has conducted an exercise to monitor and benchmark the size and causes of price differences. Two surveys were conducted, one on consumer electronics and the other on fresh food. The results show that large price differences continue to exist across Member States for these product types. The findings of these surveys are featured in the eighth edition of the Single Market Scoreboard. The survey on consumer electronics was conducted in 11 Member States between March 1999 and March 2000, whilst the survey on fresh food was conducted in 10 Member States between August 1999 and August 2000. |
