Knowledge Base
One deliverable of the EMARS project is a Knowledge Base. This is a body of knowledge (in English) on market surveillance. It is to be readily available to the member states and the European Commission and to be organized within a storage system with good retrieval functions. Proposals are also to be developed for further updates, maintenance and operation of the system in the future.

On this page we identify some valuable links to information about market surveillance. Information about access to the Knowledge Base proper is to be found following the link to the right on the page entitled "Access to Documents."
