Commission Green Papers are documents intended to stimulate debate and launch a process of consultation at European level on a particular. These consultations may then lead to the publication of a White Paper, translating the conclusions of the debate into practical proposals for Community action.
The case law of the Court of Justice of the European Communities recognises the principles laid down in the Council of Europe's Convention on Human Rights. This respect for human rights was confirmed by the Member States in the preamble to the 1986 Single Act and later incorporated into Article 6 of the EU Treaty, which is based on the above Convention and the shared constitutional traditions of the Member States.
This is the term used to describe negotiations between the Member States' governments with a view to amending the Treaties. An IGC is of major importance as regards European integration, where changes in the institutional and legal have always been the outcome of intergovernmental conferences (e.g. Single European Act and Treaty on European Union).
The central decision-making bodies of the EU, with a special status in treaties and in practice.
A common market decided upon in 1985 and implemented by the end of 1992.
This term, which refers to a legal instrument under Title V of the Treaty on European Union, means co-ordinated action by the Member States whereby resources of all are mobilised to attain specific objectives fixed by the Council on the base of general guidelines from the European Council.
Co-operation on justice and home affairs was institutionalised under the EU Treaty "third pillar". The aim of this co-operation was to give practical effect to the principle of the free movement of persons.
