EU Parliament Agenda on 5 November 2024: Hearings of Commissioners-designate

05 November

Hearings of Commissioners-designate

From Monday to Thursday, European Parliament committees will scrutinise 20 Commissioners-designate and evaluate whether they are qualified both to be members of the College of Commissioners and to carry out the particular duties they have been assigned. The confirmation hearings will continue on 12 November, when the five designated Executive Vice-Presidents and the High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy/Vice-President of the European Commission will be grilled by MEPs.

After each Commissioner hearing, the Chair(s) and group representatives (coordinators) of the committees responsible will meet without delay to evaluate the performance of the Commissioner-designate. Based on the committees’ recommendations, the Conference of Presidents (EP President Metsola and leaders of the political groups) is set to conduct the final evaluation and declare the hearings process closed on 21 November.

The vote by MEPs on the full college of Commissioners (by a majority of votes cast, by roll-call) is currently scheduled to take place during the 25-28 November plenary session in Strasbourg.
