On a daily basis, the legal experts of Your Europe Advice (YEA) receive numerous questions that, though always related to EU and national law, cover a variety of issues that EU citizens deal with. In 2018 alone, they replied to 19,194 unique enquiries related to all 28 Member States, as well as Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein.
ECAS has summarised key statistics and details of the enquiries received in the previous year, which also provide an insight into the problems experienced by EU citizens when exercising their right of free movement. Based on the nature of enquiries, YEA has also provided recommendations for Member States on how to improve the interpretation and enforcement of EU laws.
