The EU Commission has presented a very controversial proposal for a directive aimed at harmonising restructuring standards throughout Europe, whose focus is on preventive, out-of-court restructuring procedures. This is the first monographic study to provide information about the draft directive. It presents extremely up-to-date, detailed and critical information on the proposed individual regulations, embeds them in a European and German context and offers concrete implementation proposals for German legislators. Although the final version of the directive is not yet available, this analysis already shows that the future restructuring framework will have a huge impact on the German insolvency system. Therefore, not only must scientists and German lawmakers deal with this proposal in good time, but so must businesses in general and above all practitioners in the field of restructuring and insolvency law.

Abstract The panellist Anant Jani will discuss about: What is the value of digital health? There is much hope and hype surrounding the potentially transformative effect that digital health tools can have in health and care systems but it is very difficult to ascertain the true value that digital health tools currently deliver or could deliver in the future. Compounding this uncertainty is the diverse, large and ever-changing digital health landscape - there are currently over 300,000 health and care apps on the market place in comparison to the less than 2000 drugs health and care systems normally have to deal with. In this session, we highlight how the quadruple value framework, recently endorsed by the EU Commission, can be used to help rationalize the digital health ecosystem by promoting the interventions that have the greatest potential to promote primary, secondary or tertiary prevention while optimising resource utilisation.

The article analyses two distinct approaches that Western leaders have taken to relations with Putin’s Russia. It argues that the dominant approach of fostering good relations with Vladimir Putin, prioritising these over support for longer-term democratic change in Russia, has not brought any results and is damaging the interests of Russian society, neighbouring countries and the West. The article analyses the prerequisites for deep change in Russia and argues that there is a need for the EU to comprehensively review and change its strategy towards Russia, putting democracy at its core. It discusses in detail the deterrence, containment and transformation elements of a new EU strategy. The article emphasises that the strategic approach of ‘democracy first’ in relations with Russia also relates to the future of democracy in general and should be a priority of EU–US cooperation.

Genus Claviceps is a plant pathogen able to produce a group of toxins, ergot alkaloids (EAs), whose effects have been known since the Middle Ages (ergotism). Claviceps purpurea is the most important representative specie, known to infect more than 400 monocotyledonous plants including economically important cereal grains (e.g., rye, wheat, triticale). EAs are not regulated as such. Maximum limits are in the pipeline of the EU Commission while at present ergot sclerotia content is set by the Regulation (EC) No. 1881/2006 in unprocessed cereals (0.05% as a maximum). This study aimed to investigate the presence of the six principal EAs (ergometrine, ergosine, ergocornine, α-ergocryptine, ergotamine and ergocristine) and their relative epimers (-inine forms) in rye- and wheat-based products. Of the samples, 85% resulted positive for at least one of the EAs. Wheat bread was the product with the highest number of positivity (56%), followed by wheat flour (26%). Rye and wheat bread samples showed the highest values when the sum of the EAs was considered, and durum wheat bread was the more contaminated sample (1142.6 μg/kg). These results suggest that ongoing monitoring of EAs in food products is critical until maximum limits are set.
