Commission statement on financial compensation for consumers

In view of its ongoing efforts to strengthen the enforcement of Union harmonisation legislation for products, the Commission — in order to address potential financial loss by consumers due to wrongly labelled products or inferior energy and environmental performance than labelled — should investigate whether compensation for consumers in the case of non-compliance with regard to energy class displayed on the label can be addressed.
