The objective of the initiative as expressed by the organisers is to ‘explicitly make the vegan alternative always present in the private and public spaces selling food and drinks in Europe. The EU Citizens’ Initiative for VEGAN MEAL for those who are vegan and for those who respect the right to the vegan alternative and also to take action for climate change offering more easily plant-based food to the EU consumers in their daily life. Cruelty-free vegan diet does not imply the exploitation and killing of animals, responding to the emerging collective awareness of animal rights. Furthermore the vegan diet changes the territory in the choice of production and employment activities, structures and logistics with less pollution. The European Citizens’ Initiative for VEGAN MEAL asks for the introduction of the vegan alternative in the sale of food and beverages to the public in Europe by law with the hope the participation of European citizens leads to the approval of an EU law with great benefits for the planet, i.e. in mitigation of the climate crisis, extinction of wild species, deforestation, better of use of land, defence of marine life, food waste and malnutrition.’

THE HIGH AUTHORITY,

Having regard to Article 66 of the Treaty;

After consulting the Council of Ministers;

DECIDES:

Article 1

The rights or contracts specified below shall constitute the elements of control of an undertaking, where either separately or jointly, and having regard to the considerations of fact or law involved, they make it possible to determine how an undertaking shall operate as regards production, prices, investments, supplies, sales and appropriation of profits: (1) Ownership or the right to use all or part of the assets of an undertaking;

(2) Rights or contracts which confer power to influence the composition, voting or decisions of the organs of an undertaking;

(3) Rights or contracts which enable any person, by himself or in association with others, to manage the business of an undertaking;

(4) Contracts made with an undertaking concerning the computation or appropriation of its profits;

(5) Contracts made with an undertaking concerning the whole or an important part of its supplies or outlets, where the duration of these contracts or the quantities to which they relate exceed what is usual in commercial contracts dealing with those matters.

Article 2

There shall be no control of an undertaking within the meaning of Article 1 where, upon formation of an undertaking or increase of its capital, banks or financial institutions acquire shares in that undertaking with a view to selling them on the market but do not exercise voting rights in respect of those shares.

Article 3

1. The elements specified in Article 1 shall constitute control of an undertaking by individuals, undertakings or groups of persons or of undertakings who: (1) are holders of the rights or entitled to rights under the contracts concerned;

(2) while not being holders of such rights or entitled to rights under such contracts, have power to exercise the rights deriving therefrom;

(3) in a fiduciary capacity own assets of an undertaking or shares in an undertaking, and have power to exercise the rights attaching thereto.

2. If, however, the power to exercise the rights of another person is derived from a legal act, the provisions contained in subparagraphs (2) and (3) of the preceding paragraph shall not apply where the holder of the power proves: (1) that his power may be revoked at any time ; and

(2) that he is bound by special instructions from the donor ; and
