While new economic policy frameworks were put forward at the EU level immediately after the
von der Leyen II Commission took office, the main reference frameworks for EU social policies
and climate and energy policies appear to be in a state of flux. First, the European Pillar of Social
Rights (EPSR) is still awaiting a new Action Plan for its implementation, expected to be published
by the European Commission in the last trimester of 2025. The Regulation on Governance of the
Energy Union and Climate Action is expected to be revised during this legislature, to adapt it to
the new objectives and policy priorities.
