DG REFORM was created in January 2020, taking over the mandate previously carried out by the Structural Reform Support Service.
DG REFORM coordinates and provides tailor-made technical support to EU countries, in cooperation with the relevant Commission services. The support is notably provided through the Structural Reform Support Programme (SRSP).

Such support reinforces the capacity of EU countries to design and implement policies to support job creation and sustainable growth.
