Mr LEHNE proposed to come back to that point at the next meeting.

Mr LEHNE welcomed Mr DOWGELIEWICZ, President-in-office of the Council, for his second
appearance before the CCC.
Mr DOWGELIEWICZ briefed Members on both the Presidency's achievements and the remaining
more delicate issues. He emphasised the positive cooperation with the European Parliament allowing
the Presidency to perform three things:
-
to show that the community method works, taking the example of the 6-pack legislation that
was recently passed into law;
- to tackle the institutional issues that were on the table (ie correlation tables);
- to envisage the debate on the MFF in a more European spirit, referring to last week's
conference.
3
PV\850\850568EN
PE 453.457
He also mentioned a few problems encountered such as the accession of Bulgaria and Romania to
the Schengen area, on reforming the Schengen area, on the WEEE directive, on radio spectrum and
on the Connecting Europe facility.
On the Eurozone crisis, he expressed his willingness for more integration, under the condition that
those who are expected to join the Eurozone are not left on their own. But he did not answer Ms
BOWLES' question on granting the EP a greater oversight role on the European Semester, the
Europact plus and the Eurozone.
The following speakers took the floor: Mr LAMASSOURE, chair of BUDG, stressed the importance
of the negotiations on the MFF, the 2012 draft budget and ITER; Mr HARBOUR, Chair of IMCO,
underlined the need to reduce administrative burdens and tackle overregulation; Mr DANJEAN,
Chair of SEDE, pointed out the CSDP perceived "setback" of July; Ms BOWLES, Chair of ECON,
reiterated the need to involve the EP and National Parliaments on the European Semester, the
Europact plus and the Eurozone; Ms HÜBNER, Chair of REGI, complimented the Presidency on the
positive cooperation; Mr LEINEN, Chair of ENVI, underlined the importance of the 7th
Environment programme and the upcoming climate conference in Durban; Mr SIMPSON, Chair of
TRAN, recalled the need to fully implement keys pieces of legislation such as the railway package
and the Single European Sky; Mr REUL, Chair of ITRE, mentioned among other subjects the
frequency policy which is important for job creation; Mr MOREIRA, Chair of INTA, mentioned the
negotiations with Ukraine and stressed the importance of the WTO Ministerial conference in
Geneva; Ms JOLY, Chair of DEVE, asked the Presidency about the EU's position on Aid
effectiveness ahead of the Busan conference and Ms BÉRÈS, Chair of EMPL, stressed two files of
importance : the globalisation adjustment fund and aid to the most deprived.
The Chair concluded the discussion and thanked Mr DOWGELIEWICZ.
7. Exchange of views with Mr Enrique GUERRERO SALOM, rapporteur for the Committee
on Constitutional Affairs on the revision of Rule 70 of Parliament's Rules of Procedure on
inter-institutional negotiations in legislative procedures
The file includes:
a letter of 11.10.2011 from Mr LEHNE, Chair of the Conference of Committee Chairs;
Rule 70 of the Rules of Procedure of the European Parliament;
a letter of 07.04.2011 from Mr LEHNE, Chair of the Conference of Committee Chairs, to Mr
CASINI, Chair of the AFCO Committee, transmitting the Conference's Recommendation on
negotiating first reading agreements (Code of Conduct).
In his introductory remarks, Mr GUERRERO recalled the existing asymmetry between Committees
on the application of the code of conduct when it comes to negotiating first-reading agreements.
When a Committee decides to open negotiations, it has to make an official committee decision to
launch these negotiations, to set out a mandate and a negotiating team, said Mr GUERRERO. He
underlined the role of the Chairs who should play a leading role in negotiations.
According to his current proposals, when a mandate is agreed upon, it should then be transmitted to
the President and to MEPs. The Plenary should be kept informed under the form of an
announcement.
4
PV\850\850568EN
PE 453.457
During the negotiations, the negotiating team must keep the Committee informed. In case an
agreement is reached, the coordinators need to meet to be informed of the outcome. The outcome is
then to be endorsed by a plenary vote.
Mr GUERRERO informed the Chairs that his report should go to Plenary in the first quarter of next
year.
The following speakers took the floor: Ms BÉRÈS, Chair of EMPL, Ms BOWLES, Chair of ECON,
Mr MOREIRA, Chair of INTA, Mr HARBOUR, Chair of IMCO, Mr REUL, Chair of ITRE, Mr
SIMPSON, Chair of TRAN and Mr LEHNE, Chair of JURI.
While supporting the bulk of Mr GUERRERO's proposals, Chairs underlined their scepticism as to
the need to adopt legislative texts quickly; speed sometimes being detrimental to quality. They
especially warned against "trophy agreements" for the Presidency when reaching the end of a sixmonth term.
Mr LEHNE recalled that according to available statistics, 78% of all legislative texts have been
adopted through first-reading which is on the increase.
8. "The European Semester for economic policy coordination" - Presentation of the state of
play by Ms Sharon BOWLES, Chair of the ECON committee, and Ms Pervenche BERÈS,
rapporteur
The supplementary file includes:
letter of 19.10.2011 by Ms BOWLES, Chair of the ECON Committee
Ms BOWLES indicated that ECON will have a second consideration of Amendments on
7 November, when compromises are expected to be ready, and the vote in Committee will be
postponed to 14 November. This will still make it technically feasible to have this report to the
November II Plenary agenda.
Ms BÉRÈS underlined the need for Parliament to benefit from co-decision powers on the Annual
Growth Survey and greater oversight powers over the Euro Pact Plus.
On next year's meeting with National Parliaments on the European Semester, ECON would be happy
to run an inclusive event with BUDG and EMPL Members, indicated Ms BOWLES.
As to the timetable of this meeting, it should preferably take in place in February, ie before the
European Spring summit; said Mr LAMASSOURE.
9. Comitology during the winter recess of 2011

Mr LEHNE informed the Chairs that he and Jerzy BUZEK discussed the Fast-track procedure. There
is an intention, as the President said to the Conference of Presidents, to look at out how this
procedure could be used. It could be included in a better regulation agreement with the Council and
the Conference of Presidents will have to issue a mandate on that.
He proposed to inform the Conference of Presidents that there is no unanimous decision on this in
our body. We can only assume that things will be to our detriment as a result of this, said LEHNE.
He also informed that the Swoboda Working Group sent a letter to the Conference of Presidents in
view endorsing some of the Group's proposals.
13.2 - Follow-up to the exchange of views with Mr MARTINEZ MARTINEZ
Mr LEHNE reminded that at its meeting on 27 September 2011, the Conference of Committee
Chairs held an exchange of views with Mr Miguel Angel MARTINEZ MARTINEZ, Vice-President
of the European Parliament, Chair of the Steering Group on the National Parliaments, on the
relations between parliamentary committees and national parliaments.
He recalled that paragraph 16 of the EP resolution of 6 April 2011 on the estimates for the 2012
budget required that "a thorough review be conducted of the current links between the EP and
national parliaments with a view to seeing how to improve the sectoral contacts between
parliamentary committees in the EP and the Member States".
He underlined that the CCC is the responsible body to make such an assessment and that he had
written to Chairs last week, asking them for their specific experiences and contributions in this field.
13.3 - Follow-up to the meeting with the College of Commissioners
Mr LEHNE's impressions viewed this year's meeting as "better" than last year but also said it can
still be improved. He proposed to come back to that meeting in more details on another occasion.

period)

to be used more effectively, with more meetings on Monday and Thursday afternoons.
