Scope
Does the option have significant effects on certain sectors?[1]
Definition
This key question is concerned with assessing the likely impacts on specific sectors of the economy entailed by the considered policy option; climate change policy, with its implications for the energy sector and for energy intensive sectors, is but one example. Such concerns are related not only with matters of principle (fairness of treatment and fair sharing of the burden entailed by policy) but also with such fundamental issues as international competitiveness: European business and industry face a constant challenge to remain competitive, to keep up with technology, and with the pace of growth in competing countries. Meeting the challenge successfully is essential for sustainable growth and for our greater prosperity.[1]
