Impact Assessment on Economic Migration: Intra-corporate transferees and Remunerated Trainees

An Impact assessment is a set of logical steps which structure the preparation of policy proposals. It involves building on and developing the practices that already accompany the process of policy development by deepening the analysis and formalising the results in an autonomous report. Key analytical steps in impact assessment are:

1. Identify the problem.
2. Define the objectives.
3. Develop main policy options.
4. Analyse their impacts.
5. Compare the options.
6. Outline policy monitoring and evaluation.

Stakeholder consultation and collection of expertise run throughout the process.

Regioplan carried out an impact assessment for the Directorate-General Justice Freedom and Security (DG JLS). The impact assessment was done in view of the preparation of a directive on the conditions for admission of Intra-corporate transferees (ICT) and of remunerated trainees (RT).

This impact assessment increases transparency and also allow stakeholders, mainly the Member States/Council and the European Parliament, to make an informed judgement and identify the trade-offs when negotiating the Commission proposals.
