COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2024/1082
of 6 February 2024
replacing Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2019/788 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the European citizens’ initiative
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2019/788 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 on the European citizens’ initiative (1), and in particular Article 23 thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Article 3(1)(b) of Regulation (EU) 2019/788 provides that one of the conditions of validity of an initiative is that in at least one quarter of the Member States, the number of signatories is at least equal to the minimum number of citizens set out in Annex I, at the time of registration of the proposed citizens’ initiative. These minimum numbers correspond to the number of the Members of the European Parliament elected in each Member State, multiplied by the total number of Members of the European Parliament. |
|
(2) |
On 22 September 2023, the European Council adopted Decision (EU) 2023/2061 (2) establishing the composition of the European Parliament. That Decision, which entered into force on 28 September 2023, sets out the number of representatives in the European Parliament elected in each Member State for the 2024-2029 parliamentary term. |
|
(3) |
In order to mirror the rules contained in Decision (EU) 2023/2061 with regard to the minimum number of signatories set out in Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2019/788, it is appropriate to replace Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2019/788. That amendment should apply from the date on which the 2024-2029 parliamentary term begins. |
|
(4) |
Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2019/788 should therefore be replaced, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2019/788 is replaced by the text in the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from the date on which the 2024-2029 parliamentary term begins.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 6 February 2024.
For the Commission
The President
Ursula VON DER LEYEN
