European governance and the future of the Commission
No body has been so central to the development of the European Union as the Commission. It has been the architect and driving force behind the EU's greatest achievements, from the single market to the single currency. The Commission is a unique institutional innovation which distinguishes the EU from all other international and supranational organisations. That it has the sole right of initiative to propose legislation allows the Commission to control the EU's law-making agenda.
