The EU Parliament’s standing committees will hold their constitutive meetings to elect a chair and up to four vice-chairs for a two-and-a-half-year mandate. Committees deal with legislative proposals, appoint negotiating teams to conduct talks with EU ministers, adopt reports, organise hearings and scrutinise other EU bodies and institutions.

According to Rule 219 (as amended during the recent revision of Parliament’s Rules of Procedure), “the diversity of Parliament must be reflected in the composition of the bureau of each committee. The Chair and the first Vice-Chair of a committee shall not be of the same gender. Gender balance shall also apply to the other members of the bureau. It shall not be permissible for all of the bureau members to come from the same Member State.”
Following last Wednesday’s decision by Parliament’s plenary on the structure and size of Parliament’s standing committees and subcommittees, the political groups and the non-attached members appointed the MEPs assigned to each of them on Friday. According to the Rules of Procedure, the composition of its committees (including subcommittees) should as far as possible reflect the composition of Parliament as a whole – see Rules 216 and 218.
