The proposed European Joint Degree programme is part of the European Universities initiative, which I support. The European Commission is currently engaged in a research project to establish possible approaches to a joint European Degree, and a communication from the Commission with proposals for the Member States to consider is expected in March or April 2024.
At that point, when the full details of the proposal are known, my officials will examine the implications of the proposals and establish a definitive position.
