Recital 7
Recital 7
(7) In order for Union citizens and businesses to enjoy their right to free movement within the internal market, the Union should adopt specific measures allowing citizens and businesses to have easy access to comprehensive and reliable information about their rights created by Union law and to information about the applicable national rules and procedures with which they will need to comply where they move to, live or study or where they establish or carry out a business in another Member State other than their own. It is particularly important for innovative new businesses facing complex regulatory environments, such as those active in e- commerce and the collaborative economy, that they can easily find out the applicable rules and how those rules apply to their business activities. The information to be provided at national level should not only concern national rules implementing Union law, but also any other national rules that are applicable to national citizens and businesses from other Member States alike.
