The EDPS has issued its Formal Comments on a package of three legislative proposals for a European Health Union. He welcomes a European unified approach to tackle cross-border health threats while respecting the role and competences of EU Member States’ national health systems. In these Formal Comments, he takes note of the positive steps taken by the Commission to further strengthen a coordinated approach on health matters and, in particular, to broaden the European Medicines Agency’s and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control’s tasks. Both of these EU bodies have proved to be key assets in the management of the COVID-19 pandemic.
