With the adoption of its 2005 Action Plan, the Commission has launched a major reform of its State Aid policy. New rules on research and development and innovation, risk capital, regional policy and services of general economic interest, and de minimis have recently been adopted.
This entirely new work will explain in detail the substance and procedure established by the EU Treaty rules on State Aid, as well as covering these major changes. In addition, it will provide an exhaustive guide to the major upheaval of the Commission's State Aid policy that will take place during the course of 2007.
This unique work will clearly represent the authoritative text in this area, bringing together the largest number ever of Commission officials on State Aid matters. The Commission's Chief Competition Economist will also explain how the refined economic approach is being applied in State Aid cases and more than 30 experts will provide a comprehensive overview of recent developments in all State Aid areas.
