Read through the following description of the EU's main governing
bodies. Answer True or False to the questions which follow.
The Council
The Council of the European Union is the main decision-making
institution in the EU, which means that it discusses proposals and decides if
they are acceptable. It is often informally called the Council of Ministers or
just the Council. It is composed of 27 members- one for each Member State, but
these change depending on the topic- if it's agriculture, for example, then the
agriculture ministers of the members are present.
The European Council
Don't be confused by the name- the European Council is a different
body. It is composed of all the head of state or government of the EU members.
It has neither legislative nor executive powers but is there to give general
political direction through very expensive summits with excellent food and wine
that happen about twice a year! Nice for some!…
