Signing of the Treaties of Rome, in the Hall of the Horatii and Curiatii in the Capitol of Rome, Italy, March 25, 1957. Two treaties were signed on March 25, 1957 (entered into force January 1st, 1958) : the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community (EEC) and the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community (EAEC or Euratom). For both new Communities, decisions were taken by the Council on a proposal from the Commission. The Parliamentary Assembly is to be consulted, and give its opinions to the Council. The Assembly increases in size to 142 members. The European Parliamentary Assembly held its first session the following year, on 19 March 1958. With the Treaties of Rome, a specific provision is made for members to be directly elected (this was implemented in 1979).
