Agreement between the European Parliament, the Council of the European Union, the European Commission, the Court of Justice of the European Union, the European Central Bank, the European Court of Auditors, the European Economic and Social Committee and the European Committee of the Regions, establishing an interinstitutional body for ethical standards for members of institutions and advisory bodies referred to in Article 13 of the Treaty on European Union


THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT,
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
THE COURT OF JUSTICE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK,
THE EUROPEAN COURT OF AUDITORS,
THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL COMMITTEE,
THE EUROPEAN COMMITTEE OF THE REGIONS
Whereas:







(1)


Ethics, integrity and transparency are essential for maintaining the trust of the citizens of the Union in the political, legislative and administrative work of the Union’s institutions. Union actors will endeavour to foster convergence on a common culture based on these values, in accordance with the Treaties.












(2)


Members of institutions of the Union and advisory bodies of the Union referred to in Article 13 of the Treaty on European Union have a particular responsibility to uphold and embody the ethical principles and obligations set out in the Treaties as well as the rules each institution and advisory body has derived from them.












(3)


It is important that institutions and advisory bodies of the Union have and apply clear and transparent rules in that regard. They should also have a common framework of minimum standards of integrity and independence for their members and should have mechanisms to ensure compliance with the ethical rules which are applicable to their members.












(4)


The purpose of this Agreement is to establish an interinstitutional framework for cooperation on ethical standards for the members of the Parties, setting up an interinstitutional body for ethical standards (the ‘Body’). Upon its request, the European Investment Bank may also become a Party to this Agreement after it enters into force.












(5)


In order to guarantee the independence of the judiciary, the role of the Court of Justice of the European Union in the context of this Agreement should be limited to that of an observer. This role would allow it to benefit from the Body’s common minimum standards in the reflection on its own ethical rules.












(6)


The tasks of the Body should be to develop common minimum standards for the conduct of the members of the Parties in a defined number of areas in accordance with this Agreement (the ‘common minimum standards’), to hold exchanges of views on the self-assessment made by an institution or advisory body on the alignment of its internal rules with the common minimum standards, and to foster inter-institutional cooperation in this area. The Body should also contribute to raising awareness of the importance of ethical conduct and of the common minimum standards. To that end, independent experts may contribute to the efforts of the Body.












(7)


Union bodies, offices or agencies, other than the Parties to this Agreement, may voluntarily choose to apply the entire set of common minimum standards developed and to be developed by the Body, in relation to the rules applicable to the persons, other than their staff, who hold a function similar to those of the members of the Parties to this Agreement.












(8)


The exchange of views on self-assessments should also apply to the Union bodies, offices and agencies, other than the Parties, that voluntarily choose to apply the entire set of common minimum standards. To that end, each of them should designate a representative for the sake of the exchange of views.












(9)


In the application of this Agreement, full account should be taken of the characteristics and specific status of each Party to this Agreement and its members.












(10)


Nothing in this Agreement should prevent a Party to this Agreement from imposing higher ethical requirements on its members, in particular in consideration of a specific risk associated with the mandate and tasks of the Party to this Agreement or of its members.












(11)


Nothing in this Agreement should, under any circumstance, constitute grounds for lowering the ethical standards already applied by a Party to this Agreement in the matters covered by this Agreement.












(12)


Declarations of interests and other standardised written declarations of members are used by institutions and advisory bodies of the European Union. Each Party to this Agreement should have the possibility to consult or submit questions to the independent experts in that regard, if that Party deems this to be particularly relevant either for cases which require specific consideration or for the purpose of developing or updating an ethical standard. To this effect, the independent experts should submit a report to the Body on an annual basis, summarising in aggregated and anonymised form the consultations and questions submitted by the Parties to this Agreement and their follow-up. Such consultation and questions should however not be used in procedures laid down in the Treaties for appointing or electing members of a Party to this Agreement in accordance with criteria set out in the Treaties.












(13)


The Body’s functioning should not impinge on the competences of any of the Parties as set out in the Treaties or affect their respective powers of internal organisation or the system of checks and balances established by the Treaties. It should also not impinge on the powers of other bodies, including those of the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) and the European Ombudsman.












(14)


Each Party to this Agreement should strive to ensure gender balance in the appointment of its representatives and alternate representatives to the Body. The overall composition of the Body, comprising its members (representatives and alternate representatives) and its Chair, as well as the independent experts should tend towards gender balance and geographical diversity.












(15)


When exercising their tasks under this Agreement, the Body and the independent experts should take into account the different functions exercised by the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy under the Treaties.












(16)


The Parties to this Agreement should always practice mutual sincere cooperation when implementing this Agreement.












(17)


Staff of the institutions and advisory bodies are subject to rules on ethical behaviour under the Staff Regulations of the Officials of the European Union and the Conditions of Employment of other servants of the Union, laid down in Council Regulation (EEC, Euratom, ECSC) No 259/68 (1), as well as the conditions of employment and the staff rules for the staff of the European Central Bank. The Parties to this Agreement should share best practices in fora dedicated to the implementation of staff rules and, to the extent that they are relevant, draw on the common minimum standards to inform them when reviewing their internal rules for the application of those staff rules.












(18)


This Agreement is signed by the Parties following completion of their respective internal procedures for that purpose,





AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

Subject matter and scope


1.   The European Parliament, the Council of the European Union, the European Commission, the Court of Justice of the European Union, the European Central Bank, the European Court of Auditors, the European Economic and Social Committee and the European Committee of the Regions (‘the Parties’) establish by this Agreement an interinstitutional framework for cooperation on ethical standards setting up an interinstitutional body for ethical standards (‘the Body’) for the members of the Parties.
This Agreement sets out the framework and the operating principles of the Body.


2.   The role of the Court of Justice of the European Union in the context of this Agreement shall be limited to that of an observer. In that capacity, it shall attend the meetings of the Body, without participating in the decision-making process, and shall receive the information made available to the members of the Body, insofar as those meetings and that information relate to the application of Article 8.


3.   The minimum standards developed by the Body in accordance with this Agreement for the conduct of the members of the Parties (the ‘common minimum standards’) shall take into account the status of the members of the Parties and shall not enter into conflict with their European Union mandate.


4.   In the case of members of the Parties who exercise their European Union mandate on the basis of, or in addition to, a national, regional or local mandate or another function or activity subject to specific national rules, the common minimum standards shall only be relevant for the exercise of the European Union mandate.


5.   Upon its request, the European Investment Bank shall become a Party to this Agreement. Its participation in the Body shall take effect from the date it appoints a representative to the Body in accordance with Article 3(1). With regard to any common minimum standard developed by the Body prior to the effective participation of the European Investment Bank, Article 23(2) shall apply.

Article 3

The Body


1.   Each Party shall be represented in the Body by one member (‘the member of the Body’).

The representatives and their alternates shall be appointed at the maximum 2 months after the date of entry into force of this Agreement. Each Party shall strive to ensure gender balance in the appointment of its representatives and alternate representatives.


2.   The representatives of the Parties shall, in principle, be at the level of a Vice-President or at an equivalent level.


3.   Each Party shall have full discretion to proceed with the replacement or reappointment of its representative or alternate representative, while always striving to ensure gender balance amongst the representatives and alternate representatives. In any event, the term of a representative or alternate representative shall automatically come to an end when that representative or alternate representative ceases to hold office in the Party that he or she represents.


4.   The Body shall act by consensus, unless the Rules of Procedure to be adopted pursuant to Article 14 explicitly provide otherwise in respect of procedural and administrative questions.



Article 4

Chair of the Body


1.   The representative of each Party shall chair the Body on a rotating basis for a term of 1 year unless the Party chooses to waive its right to do so. The rotation among the Parties shall follow the order of institutions in the list laid down in Article 13(1) of the Treaty on European Union. Once that list has been exhausted, the rotation shall continue with the two advisory bodies referred to in Article 13(4) of the Treaty on European Union. It shall then continue with the European Investment Bank if the latter becomes a Party pursuant to Article 1(5) of this Agreement.


2.   The Chair shall organise the work of the Body, ensuring that the appropriate organisational and procedural measures are taken and bringing all required information and documents to the attention of the members of the Body.



Article 5

Independent experts


1.   The Body shall be assisted by five independent experts who shall attend all meetings of the Body as observers and shall advise the members of the Body on any ethical question related to the mandate of the Body (the ‘independent experts’). The independent experts shall designate a speaker from amongst them. They shall observe the highest ethical standards, at least equivalent to the common minimum standards.


2.   The independent experts shall be appointed taking into account their competence, experience, independence and professional qualities. They shall have an impeccable record of professional behaviour as well as experience in high-level positions in European, national, or international public organisations. They shall be selected upon a proposal by a Party and by consensus of the Parties following a procedure which consists of seeking in a transparent manner the best available individuals in respect of whom the Parties can reach consensus. The details of the procedure shall be laid down by the Body.


3.   The independent experts shall declare to the Body any conflicts of interest which could impair their independence or impartiality. In such cases, the Body shall decide whether any measures need to be taken and, if necessary, on the appropriate measures.


4.   When appointing the independent experts, the Parties shall strive to ensure gender balance and geographical diversity.


5.   The term of the independent experts shall be 3 years, renewable once. If an independent expert ceases office before the completion of the 3-year term or if the Parties decide by consensus to revoke the appointment of an independent expert, the Parties shall appoint by consensus a new independent expert for 3 years.


6.   For purely administrative purposes, the independent experts shall receive the status of Special Adviser from the Commission and shall be administratively attached to the Commission. They shall be reimbursed the travelling and accommodation expenses they incur when carrying out their duties. They shall receive a per diem allowance per day of work calculated on the basis of the remuneration of a Union official in grade AD 12.



Article 6

Article 7

Consultation of the independent experts by a Party


1.   If deemed to be particularly relevant by a Party, either for cases which require specific consideration or for the purpose of developing or updating an ethical standard, the Party may consult and submit questions to the independent experts on the compliance of declarations of interests or any other standardised written declarations, or elements or drafts of such declarations, of its own members with the common minimum standards developed by the Body and reflected by the Party in its internal rules. Pending agreement on common minimum standards such questions may be referred to the independent experts based on other relevant standards applicable to the Party.


2.   The decision of the Party on the consultation and the questions to the independent experts shall be taken in accordance with the Party’s own rules.


3.   The independent experts shall provide the Party with a confidential and non-binding written opinion in response to the consultation or the questions. The opinion shall be delivered within a reasonable period agreed with the Party. Where the opinion of the independent experts is not adopted unanimously, the opinion shall include any dissenting point of view. The deliberations of the independent experts shall be confidential.


4.   In order to inform the Body’s assessment of the necessity to develop or update common minimum standards, the independent experts shall provide an anonymised and aggregated annual account of the consultations and questions submitted by the Parties and their follow-up so as to recommend, where appropriate, to the Body that the common minimum standards be developed or updated.


5.   This Article shall be without prejudice to the mandate of the Body under Article 6.

Article 9

Update of the common minimum standards


1.   The Body shall assess the necessity for an update of common minimum standards where one or more members of the Body consider that a review is necessary.


2.   A review may be considered necessary in particular due to developments in the case-law of the Court of Justice of the European Union, to new or modified ethical standards by international organisations, to new technical developments or to the need for clarification of common minimum standards as a result of recurring issues.


3.   Article 8(5) and (6) shall apply to the update of common minimum standards.
