Proposal for a regulation

Recital 19 b (new)
(19b) This Regulation is limited to rules concerning the harmonisation of textile fibre names and the labelling of the fibre composition of textile products. In order, however, to eliminate obstacles that might arise to the proper functioning of the internal market caused by diverging provisions or practices of Member States, and in order to keep pace with the development of electronic commerce and future challenges in the market of textile products, it would be desirable to examine the harmonisation or standardisation of other aspects of textile labelling with a view to facilitate the free movement of textile products in the internal market and achieve throughout the EU a uniform and high level of consumer protection. To that end, the Commission should submit a report to the European Parliament and the Council regarding possible new labelling requirements to be introduced at Union level.
