EP Plenary session - Parliament’s right of initiative

The draft report highlights that it is high time Parliament was given a “general and direct” right to initiate legislation. This would reflect the evolution of the EU and restore balance to its institutional architecture - when the Treaties are next revised. Closing statements by Paulo RANGEL (EPP, PT), Rapporteur and by Maroš ŠEFČOVIČ, Vice-President of the European Commission.
