The action grants defined on the basis of the calls for proposal can support a wide range of activities for the implementation of Regulation (EU) 2017/2394, such as:

• legal studies;

• market surveys: for example surveys of retailers on practices that may infringe EU consumer law;

• testing equipment for example for dual quality checks.

Exceptional utility action grants defined on the basis of the call for proposals can cover:

• the above-mentioned activities and should involve at least three Member States, or

• should concern specific projects which aim to tackle infringements that cause or are likely to cause harm, in two or more Member States.
