Following the adoption of the new Multiannual Financial Framework for the period 2021-2027 on 2 May, the Commission adopted today the legislative proposal for a new Single Market Programme, which includes a specific "Food strand", with a total allocation of € 1.68 billion.
The Programme will serve as the EU’s main financial instrument to maintain a high level of health for humans, animals and plants along the food chain, guaranteeing an efficient and safe environment for citizens and businesses.
