Consumer protection and the Treaties of the European Union
Description of Consumer protection provided by the European Union Commission: Consumer protection is dealt with in Article 153 of the EC Treaty, which was inserted by the Treaty of Maastricht. It is intended to promote consumers’ health, safety, economic and legal interests, and their right to information. Article 153 explicitly refers to another legal basis for the attainment of its objectives, namely to Article 95, which requires the codecisionprocedure for all measures involving closer alignment of Member States’ legislation on completion of the single market where consumer protection is concerned. At the same time, it stipulates that specific action supporting and supplementing the policy pursued by the Member States is to be adopted under the codecision procedure, after consultation of the Economic and Social Committee. A Member State may keep or introduce stricter consumer protection measures than those laid down by the Community, as long as they are compatible with the Treaty and the Commission is notified of them.
