EN 3   EN INTRODUCTION  
This working document contains snapshots of th e activities of the comm ittees in each policy 
sectors and includes the relevant  data for all the committees in  a sector for the year 2009. All 
individual committees under th e responsibility of each Comm ission department are listed 
(whether they are active or not).  This approach provides for tran sparency in the policy sector 
activities. In addition, the textual comments be low each table highlight important changes in 
the organisation of the committ ees (e.g. creation, transfer or abolition of committees and 
procedures etc.) as well as cases referred to the Council (in the event of an unfavourable 
opinion or absence of opinion of the committee) and cases, subject to th e regulatory procedure 
with scrutiny, in which the European Parliame nt or the Council have opposed the adoption of 
a measure, during the year in question. 
Details on each committee, such  as basic legal acts and whic h Comitology procedure these 
allow the committee to adopt implementing m easures, is available in the Comitology 
Register: http://ec.europa.eu/transparency/regcomitology/index_en.htm  
Explanatory remarks: 
The following explanations are intended to help the reader to better understand the statistical 
data, and in particular, why the total number of favourable opinions may differ from the total 
number of measures adopted  in a specific sector:  
Opinions  delivered by the committees may concern various types of measures: they may 
concern draft Commission acts (directives, regul ations), decisions de signed to regulate a 
specific legal situation or decisions to approve financial projects in the context of one of the 
many Community programmes. 
In the event of a favourable opinion , the rule is that the Comm ission adopts the implementing 
measure; under the management procedure  it may also adopt an implementing measure in the 
absence  of an opinion (shown in the ‘no opinion’ column, alt hough a formal voting has taken 
place1) and under the advisory procedure , it may also adopt an implementing measure in the 
event of a  negative opinion of the committee. Only if there is an unfavourable opinion or no 
opinion  under the regulatory procedure  and the  regulatory procedure with scrutiny  is a 
proposal relating to the measure submitted to the Council, which then has the power to decide 
(referrals to the Council). In addition, under the regulatory procedure with scrutiny , the 
European Parliament or the Council can oppose th e adoption of a draft measure, even where 
there is a positive opinion of the committee.  
Furthermore, the total number of favourable opinions  delivered by committees can be 
different from the number of implementing measures  adopted by the Commission in a given 
sector when opinions are delivered one year but the instruments are not adopted until the 
following year. 
In certain cases committees are required to deliver opinions on matters which will not be the 
subject of a draft implementing measure until some time later.  
                                                 
1 This situation occurs if neith er the necessary quorum for a favourable , nor for an unfavourable opinion  
has been reached as a result of the vote. 
EN 4   EN Therefore, in light of the above, there may be  considerable discrepa ncies between the total 
number of opinions  and the number of implementing measures  adopted by the Commission. 
A number of committees had no activity at all in  the reporting year. This is indicated by the 
figure “0” in all columns. It is, however, possi ble that a committee did not  meet at all in the 
reporting year, but delivered formal opinions on which it voted by written procedure, according to the rules of procedure of the committee.
