"One of the most burning issues in EU law involves the harmonisation of contract law. On the one hand, it seems that the need for greater internal consistency is being felt, in order that companies can benefit from the common market’s potential without fearing that there might be solutions in a given foreign legal system that they had not anticipated and for which they had not prepared, which has been a real problem. On the other, however, there is a certain resistance amongst Member States to sacrificing their legal solutions, which is hardly surprising given that these have developed over centuries and that they are widely known by their respective populations.
As such, in its Green Paper of 1 July 2010, the Commission tabled several solutions for regulatory models ranging from mere soft law to a European civil code. Of the various hypotheses, the European Parliament is in favour of the creation of an optional instrument in the form of a regulation, that governs cross-border transactions first of all, and that can potentially also be used for internal contracts, albeit optionally. This seems like a reasonable solution to me, so I voted in favour."@en1
