Legislation - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Parliament is powerful and national parliaments are tied to the system through legislation → the EP’s power has increased (e.g. ordinary legislative procedure and political supervision of the Commission) → key job: to represent union citizens
      - Ministers in the Council are liable to their national parliaments → they nauttivat kansallisen parlamentin luottamusta
      - Principle of subsidiarity (läheisyysperiaate)
      - The EP elects the chairman on the Commission
    - - Citizens’ initiative: 1 million citizens from 7 different countries propose something → the commission must consider it
- - - - These provide legislative act and delegated act
      - They must deal with the essential elements of an area
      - Legislative acts can delegate some power to the Commission, so that the Commission can supplement or amend non-essential elements (E.g. greenwashing and environmental sustainability marketing question (when can you call it that? = commission gave criteria))
    - - Member states put acts into effect and the EU supervises it (If there are requirements for more unified implementation, EU (the Commission) can have more say in action)
