<i>’The book is a valuable contribution to the better understanding of shared administration (enforcement) and "agencification" of accountability systems in the EU.'</i>
- Ernö Várnay, Common Market Law Review,
<i>'The book provides an excellent and in-depth analysis of each major European enforcement agency; how they interact with national agencies; and identifies strengths and gaps in the accountability frameworks governing those bodies. This book is a must have for academics and policy makers who seek to understand the operation of EU enforcement mechanisms.'</i>
- Philip Bender, Australian Journal of Public Administration,
The study focuses on the interplay between political accountability and judicial protection in the system of shared direct enforcement. It offers a comparative investigation into the EU-national interrelationship in the field of shared enforcement and shows the need for improvement of democratic control and judicial protection in the area of 'shared tasks, but separated controls'. Expert contributors analyze these issues in relation to specific sectors, including financial/banking supervision, aviation, food law, fisheries, fraud, financial interests of the European Union, competition law and pharmaceuticals.
This detailed book includes insights from both academics and practitioners, drawing on different national backgrounds and subject specialisms. It provides an important resource for researchers of EU law and governance and officials in the field of enforcement.
