Earlier this month an update on the consultation and new Code was given in a speech by the Commission's chairman (Prof. Nonnenmacher). A copy of the speech was published a few days later on April 8: see here (pdf). An (official) English translation is not (so far) available.
My interpretation of the speech suggests that there may be a delay in the coming into force of new Code - originally planned for 10 June 2019 - should there be a delay in the coming into force of the legislation - ARUG II - implementing the Shareholder Rights Directive (2017/828). Depending on the delay in implementing ARUG II, the Commission is considering publishing a final draft of the new Code in May 2019, highlighting the changes it proposes to the draft published last year. This is not intended to open a second period of consultation, although Prof. Nonnenmacher has indicated the Commission's willingness to accept further feedback.
