Committee on Constitutional Affairs (AFCO) The 2014 European - TopicsExpress



          

Committee on Constitutional Affairs (AFCO) The 2014 European elections are the first ones to be held in the aftermath of the Lisbon Treaty coming into force in 2009, and the first task of the incoming Parliament will be to elect the next President of the European Commission to succeed José Manuel Barroso. This means voters now can indirectly determine who takes over at the helm of the EU government, which is considered a major step in the development of democratic legitimacy in the European Union. What other measures can be taken in order to further empower the European Parliament and fill the democratic deficit?
