On 22 November 2018, the European Commission published a communication on the Single Market calling on the Council of the European Union to adopt certain legislative proposals (including relating to the Prospectus Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 ("Prospectus Regulation") and promotion of SME growth markets).  The European Commission also directed member states to vigilantly implement and enforce EU rules in order to maintain and maximise the economic benefits of the Single Market (which it estimates to amount to about 8.5% of the EU's gross domestic product).
