Behind the scenes
Who actually decides this?
- Step 1
European Commission
Proposes
The Commission is the only one that can write a new EU law from scratch. Think of them as the ones drafting the group chat message.
- Step 2
European Parliament
Amends & debates
MEPs you actually voted for read the draft, argue about it, and suggest changes. This is where things get loud.
- Step 3
Council of the EU
Also amends
Ministers from each EU country weigh in for their government. They want changes too, usually different ones than Parliament.
- Step 4
Parliament + Council
Sign off together
They lock themselves in a room (the ‘trilogue’) with the Commission until they agree on one final text. Both have to say yes, or nothing happens.
