The European Commission has also issued a Proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on a Common European Sales Law (COM(2011) 635 final). This Proposal for an elective law in consumer and small business sales and related transactions is briefly noted. Finally, there has been some expansion of the chapters on documentary letters of credit and related instruments.
