| Abstract: | The main object of the paper is to stimulate debate about the current state of the relationship and tensions btw. consumer and environmental protection policies at Community level. By virtue of the constitutional changes to Community Law introduced by the Single European Act 1986 (SEA) and the Treaty on European Union 1992 (TEU), the European Community (EC) has committed itself to re-evaluating its core, that is, fundamental aim of getting market integration completed. The paper aims to assess critically to what extent EC policy and law have responded to these new challenges and requirements. It appears that the Community has barely started to confront the issue of the consumer-environment interrelationship. |
