Recital 3
(3) In June 2017 the Commission adopted a Reflection Paper on the Future of EU Finances18 . The Commission proposes a range of options linking Own Resources more visibly to Union policies, in particular the single market and sustainable growth. According to the paper, in introducing new Own Resources, it is necessary to pay attention to their transparency, simplicity and stability, their consistency with Union policy objectives, their impact on competitiveness and sustainable growth and their equitable breakdown among Member States. Equity and fairness are important principles and necessary conditions for the system of EU own resources. The Commission should present a thorough impact assessment evaluating the impact of each proposed new own resource on the competitiveness of the EU and on Member States to ensure an equal impact on equivalent taxpayers across the EU. _________________ 18 COM(2017)358 final of 28 June 2017.
