European Union Community & Lobbies Law

What do we understand by the European Union Community & Lobbies Law? 

The European Union has its own legal framework, which is independent of international law. The EU law has a direct or indirect effect on the laws of all its member states and becomes part of the legal system of each member state. The European Union in itself is a legal authority.

The legal order is generally divided into primary legislation (the Treaties and general legal principles), secondary legislation (based on the Treaties) and supplementary law.

The European Parliament, together with the Council, exercises legislative functions, through the so-called “ordinary legislative procedure”. The Parliament seeks to simplify the legislative process, improve the quality of the drafting of legal texts and ensure that appropriate sanctions are imposed on Member States that do not comply with Union legislation.

The Commission’s Annual Legislative and Work Program presents the main political priorities and identifies concrete actions, legislative or non-legislative, which translate these priorities into operational terms. Parliament plays a genuine role in the creation of new laws, as it examines the Commission’s Annual Work Program and can express which laws it would like to see introduced.
