Sedan 2004, när förordning 1/2003 trädde ikraft, har kommissionen givits en möjlighet att ersätta sitt förfarande för överträdelsebeslut inom tillämpningen av konkurrensrätt, med ett förenklat förfarande där specifika åtaganden görs bindande gentemot företag.

Generella skatteflyktsregler, eller GAARs (general anti-avoidance rules), är legislativa åtgärder mot skatteflykt. GAARs typiska struktur består av två förutsättningar: skattebetalarens syfte och lagstiftarens syfte.
