We would like to inform you of the recent changes within the PostEurop European Union Affairs Committee (EAC), and Operational Affairs Circle (OAC), following the PostEurop 122 Management Board meeting.
European Union Affairs Committee (EAC)
E-Commerce Working Group
The E-Commerce Working Group maintains a constructive dialogue with all relevant stakeholders, including the European Commission and the European Parliament, on the issues related to e-commerce driven cross-border parcel delivery.
Achim Schröder (Deutsche Post DHL Group) has been appointed as the new Chair of the E-Commerce Green Paper Working Group, succeeding his DPDHL colleague Katja Kollmeier, who changed functions within the company.
Achim is the Senior Legal Counsel for the department of Regulation Management and Corporate Public Affairs at Deutsche Post DHL Group. Having 19 years of experience on postal market regulation, EU antitrust and state aid law, he was part of Deutsche Post's state aid team before the European Commission and EU courts. Furthermore he participated in many proceedings before the German regulators and discussions at political level on the shaping of the postal regulatory framework. These roles have given Achim broad experience in negotiations with regulators and government bodies on domestic and EU level.
