  6. Questions to the Executive Committee, Tor Fridell, Ladok
    • Discussion:
      • Question about single digital gateway and specifically the second phase and the once only -principle: It has wide effects in EU area. It is mandatory to use from 2023 but is not compatible with current solutions like Emrex. Has this been discussed in Emrex network?
        • It has been discussed in some of the countries and should be also discussed in Emrex user group
        • The vote in the matter in EU level is in June
        • The single digital gateway does not take individual fields like education into question but try to fix everything at once. The technology is old.
        • It would be good if colleagues are aware if things are planned elsewhere in the Commission that disregard achievements already made in our sector.
    • A position paper on the matter will be prepared and sent to appropriate parties to share our views on Emrex viewpoint
