regarding the
INSTITUTION ALIMPLICATIONS >
ofGreece's accession
(Commission Communication totheCouncil )

-INTROIUCTIC®
1.Inthecontext ofitsgeneral considerations ontheproblems of
enlargement ,theCommission presented theCouncil with asupplementary
document analyzing thetransitional period andtheinstitutional ^
implications ofenlargement ^.Thatcommunication ,andtheconsiderations
andconclusions expressed therein ,were formulated from theangle of
accession ofthethree applicant countries (Greece ,Portugal andSpain )*
Thiscommunication constitutes thepartial practical app^&tion ofthese
general considerations tothespecific caseofGreece '.^^Iccession .It
deals solely ,however ,withproblems ofaninstitutional nature ,tothe
exclusion oftheconditions regarding thetransitional period ,onwhich
theCommission will "bepresenting separate proposals .Inaddition ,
although itdoes ofcourse refer baok to general considerations set
outintheabovementioned overall docum<$ ^?,thiscommunication isbased
ontheassumption thatGreece willa^££de before theother twoapplicant
countries .
2.Besides dealing exclusivel^with problems ofaninstitutional nature the
proposals setoutinth^j^omnrunication regarding adjustment totheTreaties
consequent upon theq^jpession ofGreece areconfined tothe"numerical "
adjustments intheSbmposition andoperation ofinstitutions that will
result from anincrease inthenumber ofMember States ,inline with the
approach adopted atthetime oftheaccession ofthethree newMember
States .vv^
COM (78)190final of20April 1978 .

They arewithout prejudice toproposals which theCommission reserves
theright topresent atalater dateregarding theother ,morefar-reaching ^
adjustments tothe'Preaties –raised intheCommission 'sgeneral communication ^*
referred toabove –that will beintended tofacilitate thefunctioning
theenlarged Community .
Theyalsoleave aside certain praotical administrative question ^^.
inparticular ,thelanguages tobeusedintheenlarged Commu^^y .
These proposals are ,however ,supplemented byanindication ofanumber ofproblems
institutional connected with theadaptation ofcertain acts ofCommunity
secondary legislation .
<s^
Theproposals setoutinthiscommunica"^^i also takeaccount ofthe
statement which theGreek Delegation :n^ade oninstitutional aspects ^
attheeighth session oftheConference atDeputy level on23September
1977 .They aretherefore aimed atdefining theCommunity position
tobepresented inresponse .4^that statement .

II-"NUMERICAL "ADJUSTMENT TOTHE TREATIES
1.Asitemphasized initsgeneral communication referred toabove ,the
Commission considers that thenumerical adjustments to "bemade inthe
composition andoperation oftheinstitutions mast bedetermined bythe ^
rule ,defined when theinstitutions merged in1967 andconfirmed atthe
time ofthefirst enlargement operation ,that allMember States must be
presented inevery Community institution body .
Itwouldprobably bedesirable toreaffirm thesebasicprinc^K^s onthe
occasion ofGreece *saccession .
Moreover ,this communication isbased ontheidea that ,from thedate of
accession and independently ofanytransitional derogations that maybe
agreed ,Greece willparticipate fully inall^j^einstitutions inthesame
wayasthepresent Member States .
2.Generally speaking ,thecriteria set^$3;intheCommission 'sgeneral
considerations –inparticular thebasic data given inthetable onpage
12ofthe supplementary analysis oftheinstitutional implications of
1enlargement –enable Greec^s position tobedetermined inrelation to
!those ofthepresent Meml^j^States andleadtotheconclusion thatGreece
should beallotted a similar tothose occupied byBelgium andthe
Netherlands .
3.Theadjustments that need tobemade asregards theEuropean Parliament must
bebasedoi^&ie conditions governing itscomposition defined intheCouncil
Decisio^^20September 1976ontheActconcerning theelection ofthe
repr&jfektatives oftheAssembly bydirect universal "suffrage ^,itshould be
1COM (78)190final of24April 1978
2OJL278of8October 1976 ,p.1.

borne inmind that the date ofGreek accession will fall after the first
election ofthemembers oftheEuropean Parliament bydirect universal
suffrage ,asthis first election will probably take place on7–10June 1979
inaccordance with thedecision taken bytheEuropean Council atitslast
meeting *
TheCommission feels that itmust rule outthepossibility ofageneral
redistribution ofseats among alltheMember States oftheenlarged
Community following theaccession ofGreece .Itconsiders that this formula
should bediscounted forreasons ofexpediency based onthetwq^ld concern
nottocallintoquestion thehard-won agreement ontheprese^"distribution
andtoavoid theneedtocallanewgeneral election ina|^^the Member States
aswould benecessary ifthedistribution onthebasis<^which thefirst
election washeld were tobechanged .Ittherefore feels that theadjustment
required here must beconfined toproviding anumber ofadditional seats
forrepresentatives ofGreece without changing ^henumber ofseats allocated
toeach ofthepresent Member States .
Inthelight ofthecriteria used bytlwgtfiine Member States forthepresent
distribution ,itisproposed that24slats beadded forGreece (thesame
number asforBelgium ).This number corresponds tothat putforward bythe
Greek delegation initsstatement of23September 1977 *
Provision should alsobe^^de fortransitional measures intheevent of
thedateofGreekacce^^on falling ,aswillprobably happen ,after the
first election oftheParliament bydirect universal -suffrage butbefore
thedate ofexpiry ofthefive–year term oftheelected representatives .
Toforestall ^eneedtoholdanew,early general election inallthe
Member Stajj&s assoon asGreece accedes ,these transitional measures are
«5^
intend.e^fco enable Greece toberepresented intheEuropean Parliament

for the remainder ofthefive year term mquestion .Since they
inevitably derogate from theprinciples ofthe Act of20September
1976 ,express provision will have tomade for such measures inthe
instrument ofGreek accession .
These derogations could consist either ofholding anadditional ,partia]<£j
election inGreece ,which would bevalid for the remainder ofthe term ,or
ofauthorizing Greece ,byway ofexception ,touseits quota according to
theoriginal Treaty formula (inother words ,delegates designat^jL bytheGreek Parliament from among itsmembers )until thedate oft&s^econd
simultaneous general election inalltheMember States of^$e enlarged
Community .TheCommission considers that Greece shoul<^$fe lefttochoose
which ofthese two formulas itwishes toadopt .
Where theCouncil isrequired toactbyaqua^jied majority theweighting
ofGreece 'svote must beestablished .On grounds set out inits
general communication of24April 1978, Commission considers that
Greece 'svote should beweighted bya^Stctor of5(thesameasforBelgium
andtheNetherlands );this figure corresponds tothat proposed bythe
Greek Delegation inits statement of23September 1977 .
After Greekaccession the^jj&hber ofvotes wouldtherefore total 63(instead
of58asatpresent ). number ofvotes required foraqualified majority
should therefore bes^fcat44(instead of41asatpresent ).Council decisions
not taken onaCommission proposal should -require the votes of 'atleast
seven countries (instead ofsixasatpresent ).These figures aretheones
which most^&osely reflect thebalance ofpower between theMember States
andth^fijfe third proportion required intheComnrunj.ty bothasatpresentconst S&ated andasoriginally constituted .

-6-
With regard tothespecial rules oftheECSC Treaty ,noadditional
adjustment isrequired concerning thespecial provisions ofArticle 28,
which refer tomajorities consisting ofthevotes oftheStates which
produce atleast oneeighth ofthetotal value oftheCommunity 'scoa^^ "
andsteel output ,since Greece does notaccount forsuch ashare ofoutput .
Thespecial majority required under Article 95(last paragraph )for
certain adjustments totheTreaty should ,however ,bechange^fto eight-
tenths (fromthepresent eight-ninths ,inorder tocome^S&ertothe
quorum applied intheoriginal Community ofSix(five-^^&ths ),whichhadtobe
abandoned forarithmetical reasons whenenlargement increased thesizeof
theCommunity tonine members .
5.Asregards thecomposition oftheCongrLssion ,various
possibilities weresuggested bytheC^^ssion inanearlier
communication (COM(78)190final ,S^?a .25),notably thatof
having oneMember perMember State *
TheCommission considers ,however ,that itwould notbeappropriate
todecide onsuchchange^$n connection withGreek accession .It
such adecision were "Woke taken itwould bebetter forittobe
inthecontext ofP^plguese andSpanish accession .
Inthecase ofGreece ,theCommission therefore proposes that a
Greek beappointed asanadditional Member oftheCommission when
Greece 'theCommunity .This proposal isinline with the
reques^of theGreek Delegation (statement of23September 1977)*

6. AstheCommission pointed outinitsgenera l^sotomuni cation of24April 1978 thechanges inthecomposition andoperation oftheCourt
ofJustice required byenlargement will form the subject ofanopinion ,
which the Commission has already asked the Court togive .
TheCommunity position onthi^ytatter cannot bedetermined until
theCourt'sopinion ,which will bed^cj^/eredinthenearfuture,isknown .
The Commission therefore proposes that areservation beentered onthis
point provisionally .
7. The'membersh^&f theCourtofAuditors should beincreased to
ten(instead ofnine^j^tpresent ),inorder toenable aGreek nationaltobeadded . ^
8. The composition ofthe Economic and "Social Committee (Article
194iofthfl^feC Treaty andArticle 166oftheEuratom Treaty )should be
increaiMS byafurther 12members ,tobeprovided byGreece .
With this figure ,which isthe same asthat for Belgium and the
Netherlands ,ij:should bepossible toprovide adequate representation for
the various categories ofeconomic andsocial activity' inGreece ;it
corresponds tothefigure proposed bythe Greek delegation .

-8-
 9. The Consultative Committee attached tothe Commission under
Article 18ofthe ECSC Treaty should also beexpanded tomake room for ,
representatives from Greece .
:Under thefirst paragraph ofthis Article (asamended atthe
time ofthe last enlargement operation ),the Committee consists ofnot
lessthan 60andnotmore than 84members ,appointed intheii^ersonal »
capacity fortwoyears bytheCouncil ,andcomprises equa^^Ombers of
producers ,ofworkers andofconsumers andofealers (in^^Community asoriginally constituted ,thenumber ofmembers wasfix& !atnotlessthan
30and not more than 51). Minus the three seats earmarked for Norway ,the
Committee atpresent consists of81members (27per category ).
The Greek delegation proposed the membership ofthe Committee
should beincreased tonotlesstha^d^andnotmorethan93.
Inview ofthecriteria applied when the Committee was restructured
in1974,given oftherelative share ofGreek coal andsteel output
andthe number ofcoal a«s^steel workers and consumers ofECSC products
inGreece ,itwould aSj^ar appropriate toaddthree seats (inorder to
cS9provide Greece with^bt least one seat for each ofthe three categories ),
therdoy increasing the membership ofthe ECSC Consultative Committee to
not less than 63and not more than 84(atthe *same time doing away with
theseat^^rmarked in1972forNorway).
lO.'s. TheScientific and Technical Committee ,set upand attached
tothe Commission under Article 134 ofthe Euratom Treaty ,atpresent
consists of2?members (asopposed to20inthe Community asorginally
constituted ),appointed intheir personal capacity for *five years bythe
^ Council' after consultation with theCommission .TheGreek delegation
proposed that the membership ofthis Committee beincreased to29so
that two Greek nationals could beadded .

-9-
The Commission proposes that the membership ofthis Committee beincreased
to28(this figure corresponds totheonethat hadbeen envisaged inthe ^
event ofNorway 'saccession ).
11. ;*With regard tothe European Investment Bank,ofwhich all Member
States ofthe Community are members pursuant toArticle 129 ofthe EEC
Treaty ,Greece will berequired toappoint aminister totheB^grd ofGovernors ;
forthistobedone,noadjustment oftheTreaties isrequi^^.
TheProtocol onthe Bank'sStatute wi11,howevi^p ^have toundergo certain
adjustments ,mainly ofaninstitutional nature ,with regard inparticular
tothelist ofMember States (Article 3),the increase incapital and the
amount oftheshare tobesubscribed byacceding State (Article 4(1)),the
composition (directors andalternates ) Board ofDirectors (Article 11
(2))and the number ofvotes required aqualified majority within the
said Board (Artiole 12(2 )).
Inits statement of23September 1977 the Greek delegation
presented specific propos^^on thismatter which are,however ,restricted
totheconditions gove^fog itsparticipation intheBank'sbodies anddonot
touch onthefinanci^^aspects .
Inamemorandum transmitted tothe Council byletter of12
January 19^S(I /22/77(GR/1.)of21January 1977)theBankitself examined
themai^jj^fnancial andlegal problems which would becreated byGreek
acce^^on andsuggested thesolutions which itconsiders should beapplied .
Insofar astheinstitutional aspects are concerned the
Commission feels that itisable toconcur with the views and suggestions
expressed onthis subject bythe European Investment Bank inthe said
memorandum ;itinvites the Council torefer tothese views and suggestions ,
anupdated version ofwhich has been announced with regard tothe financial
aspects following the recent increase incapital .

III.OTHER QUESTIONS OF AN INSTITUTIONAL NATURE
(involving acts ofCommunity secondary Legislation )
1. Theactsrelating toinatitutional matters examined aspart(^^Ke
work onCommunity secondary lesgislation include the rules ofprocedure
ofthe Community institutions ,namely :
i)theRules ofProcedure oftheEuropean Parliament (Ju^j§^76 -not
published inthe 0J);
ii)theprovisional Rules ofProcedure ofthe Council (not published in
the 0J);
iii>theprovisional Rules ofProcedure q^che Commission :Decision
67/426/EEC-67/24/Euratom of6 1967 (OJN°147,11.7.1967 , .p.1),
asamended andsupplemented by^cisions 70/328/ECSC,EEC,Euratom of
2July 1970 (OJN°L145,3.7.1970 ,p.28),73/1/ECSC,EEC,Euratom and
73/2/ECSC,EEC,Euratom of6January 1973 (OJL7,6.1.1973 ,p.1 and 2),
and75/46/Euratom ,E«j^EECof23.7.1975 (OJL199,30.7.1975 ,p.43);
andtherules of^fifrocedure ofthetwoCommittees set uprespect ively
bythe ECSC Trea&y andthe EECandEuratom Treaties ,namely :
iv)the Rules ofProcedure ofthe Consultative Committee ofthe ECSC (1974 )
(OJC^, 22.3.1974 ,p*.1);
v)t&s^revised Rules ofProcedure (74/428/EEC,Euratom )ofthe Economic^dSocial Committee (OJL228,19.8.1974 ,p.1).
These various rules ofprocedure will probably have tobe
adapted inthe light ofthe amendments tobemade tothe composition of
these institutions and committees within the context ofenlargement ofthe
Q® Communities .
./.

Itwould appear ,however ,that any such adaptations will have tobe
made ,after the accession ofGreece ,byeach institution orcommittee
concerned inits new form following the accession ofthat country ,as
wasdoneatthetimeofthelast enlargement operation .Tothis end,^
the instrument ofaccession for Greece could contain arrangements
similar tothose provided forunder Articles 139(2 )(jfortheAssembly ^,
140(2 )(forthe Council ),14l(2 )(forthe Commission )and 147 (forthe
Committees )oftheActofAccession of22January 1972. .<#
Theexamination oftheactsofCommunity secondary le^^fetion inthisfield also covered theRules ofProcedure ofthe Coj^^ofJustice of
14December 1974 (OJL350,28.12.1974 ,p.l).
There isnodoubt that Greek accession wi^ynake certain adaptations
tothisRegulation necessary ,particul£ ^§^withregard toArticle 29
(thelanguage ofacase),AnnexII^^^ension oftimelimits onaccount
ofdistance )andthelists referr^^to inArticles 2,4and6ofthe
Supplementary Rules that are given inAnnexes I,IIandIIItothose
Supplementary Rules .Aswas the case with the previous enlargement
operation ,however ,it beforthe Court ofJustice itself (with
theunanimous approv^^of theCouncil )tomake,after theaccession of
Greece ,suchadaptations toitsrules ofprocedure asaremadenecessary
bythat accession .Tothis end,itwill benecessary toinclude the act
ofaccession for Greece aprovision similar ijothat contained inArticle
142(4 )crf^the ActofAccession of22January 1972 .4?
Inx^fcs reports ontheexamination ofacts ofCommunity secondary
legislation the Commission has raised the general problem ofGreek
participation inthe various committees set uporgoverned bysuch
acts .

-12-
(a)Where thecomposition ofsuch committees isrelated tothe number
ofMember States acorresponding number ofGreek representatives
mustbeadded and,where necessary ,theprovisions governing their^l ^composition must beadapted accordingly .Such adaptations are^
indicated inthe technical conclusions embodying theresults of
the examination ofCommunity secondary legislation ineach ofthe
fields considered ,butitisnotnecessary forallthe^sesent
members ofsuchcommittees tobereplaced since the^5^represent­
atives ofGreece willuponaccession jointhese^j^hg members .
Given the prospects ofsubsequent enlargement ofthe Community to
twelve Member States ,however ,itisne^ssary toconsider revising
theconditions under which eachoftj^tj^lember States arerepresented
onsuchcommittees since their op&J^rtional efficiency could be
<67jeopardized asaresult ofexcefflive enlargement ofthe membership .
•••/•••

-13-
(b)Themembership ofcertain other committees isnot,however ,linked
tothe number ofMember States .These committees consist ofreprow ^
sentatives oftrade organizations set up .atCommunity level oro*Sr
members appointed inview oftheir qualifications ,andtheir number
isdetermined according tocriteria other than the number of Com­
munity Member States .Insuch cases Greek accession not appear
towarrant increasing themembership ofthese commi-^^es sincethis
might jeopardize their operational efficiency ;a^Vision canbemade
for Greek nationals tosit onsuch committees inaccordance with the
present membership rules ,which therefore donot need tobechanged .
Onthe other hand ,the entire committees should bereolaced upon the
accession ofGreece ,inorder toeri^^e themembership toberenewed
inthelightoftheneedtoensu^js^hat thereisadequate Greekparti­
cipation .Tothis end,aproriSlion should beincluded intheinstru­
ment fortheaccession ofGreece which issimilar toArticle 148(2 )
ofthe Act ofAccession for the three new Member States ,containing
inanannex alist q^fche committees tobereplaced inthis way.
