EU: POST STOCKHOLM PROGRAMME

Two letters from Commissioner Malmstrom (Home Affairs: Internal security and immigration) and Commissioner Reding (Justice Affairs) to the Council of the European Union: Text of the two letters (pdf)

It is intended to agree the new Post-Stockholm Programme (2105-2020) at the European Council on 26-27 June 2014 - it will be formally adopted under the Italian Council Presidency (July-December 2014, and may be called the "Rome Programme"). The European Parliament is not at all happy with the Council's timetable as it will have little time to consider the five-year plan with elections at the end of May and most of June taken up with constituting the new parliament (new MEPs, agreeing Committee Chairs etc).

The new Programme adopted by the European Council (EU Prime Ministers) will set out the agenda for the European Commission to put forward proposals which are then discussed and agreed by the Council of the Ministers (Justice and Home Affairs Council) and the European Parliament acting as co-legislators.
