EU Policy – Current Affairs
As part of the legislative process, proposed policies are discussed in both the European Parliament (EP) and the Council of the European Union. In the EP, this happens in committees which specialise in certain topics such as transport, energy and the environment. In the Council, this happens in configurations where certain ministers of all member states meet such as environmental ministers or ministers of energy.
In this section, you will find summaries of such meetings, the topics they discussed, the points of contention and the different positions of different political groups and member states.
