13. Declaration on Article 225(2) and (3) of the Treaty establishing the European Community

The Conference considers that the essential provisions of the review procedure in Article 225(2) and (3) should be defined in the Statute of the Court of Justice. Those provisions should in particular specify:

- the role of the parties in proceedings before the Court of Justice, in order to safeguard their rights;

- the effect of the review procedure on the enforceability of the decision of the Court of First Instance;

- the effect of the Court of Justice decision on the dispute between the parties.
21. Declaration on the qualified majority threshold and the number of votes for a blocking minority in an enlarged Union

Insofar as all the candidate countries listed in the Declaration on the enlargement of the European Union have not yet acceded to the Union when the new vote weightings take effect (1 January 2005), the threshold for a qualified majority will move, according to the pace of accessions, from a percentage below the current one to a maximum of 73,4 %. When all the candidate countries mentioned above have acceded, the blocking minority, in a Union of 27, will be raised to 91 votes, and the qualified majority threshold resulting from the table given in the Declaration on enlargement of the European Union will be automatically adjusted accordingly.
