In the previous phases you have identified your bottlenecks and the accompanying EU-legislation. In the third phase we will provide you with the tools you need to explore the EU policy cycle and determine the status of the relevant EU-legislation for your bottleneck(s). This is important because the status of EU-legislations determines which opportunities in the Better Regulation Agenda can be used to submit proposals for Better Regulation. The opportunities for submitting these Better Regulation proposals will also be explained in more detail.

After you have familiarized yourself with the EU policy cycle and the Better Regulations Agenda, you are going to learn how to link your bottleneck(s) with the Better Regulation Agenda.

If you’ve used the BRIGHT-tool before, you can skip step 6 and 7 and continue to step 8.
