The legislative text is adopted if the Council approves all the amendments.
Zakonodajno besedilo je sprejeto, če Svet sprejme vse predloge sprememb.
The Commission is also involved throughout the procedure.
sodeluje tudi Komisija.
If, within six weeks, the conciliation committee does not approve a joint text, the proposal falls.
Če spravni odbor v roku šestih tednov ne more oblikovati skupnega besedila, je postopka konec.
If, however, the representatives of the two institutions reach an agreement on a joint text, that text is submitted, in a third and final reading, to a plenary session of Parliament and to the Council.
Če pa predstavniki obeh institucij o skupnem besedilu dosežejo soglasje, se ga predloži Parlamentu na plenarnem zasedanju in Svetu v tretje in zadnje branje.
If the text is then approved it becomes law.
Če je besedilo sprejeto, postane zakon.
If no decision is taken, the proposed act is deemed not to have been adopted.
Če odločitve ni, se šteje, da predlagano besedilo ni bilo sprejeto.
At the very beginning of the legislative procedure the proposal is also sent to the national parliaments, who have eight weeks to assess its compatibility with the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality.
Na začetku zakonodajnega postopka je besedilo predloženo tudi nacionalnim parlamentom, da lahko ti v roku osmih tednov ocenijo njegovo skladnost z načeloma subsidiarnosti in sorazmernosti.
If a sufficient number of parliaments raise objections on those grounds, the EU institutions are required to re-examine the proposal and, if necessary, substantiate their decision to pursue the procedure.
Če določeno število parlamentov izrazi nasprotovanje, so institucije besedilo dolžne znova preučiti in po potrebi utemeljiti svojo odločitev za nadaljevanje postopka.
Special legislative procedures
Posebni zakonodajni postopki
All procedures other than that described above are known as ‘special’ procedures, including the ad hoc procedure required for adopting the budget, which is described in detail in the following chapter.
Vsak drug postopek, ki ni enak zgoraj opisanemu, se imenuje „posebni“, med drugimi postopek ad hoc za sprejetje proračuna, ki je podrobno opisan v naslednjem poglavju.
Some acts must be adopted unanimously by the Council, with Parliament’s prior approval.
Nekatere akte mora soglasno sprejeti Svet po predhodni odobritvi Evropskega parlamenta.
MEPs thus have a kind of veto, allowing them to reject or accept a proposal as a whole, without the possibility of proposing amendments.
Poslanci imajo torej nekakšno pravico veta, ki jim omogoča, da zavrnejo ali sprejmejo besedilo v celoti, ne morejo pa predlagati sprememb.
This is the case with the multiannual financial framework and measures to combat discrimination or extend the rights associated with citizenship (which also require national ratification). cation).
To velja za predloge v zvezi z večletnim fi nanč-nim okvirom, ukrepi za boj proti diskriminaciji in razširitvijo pravic, povezanih z državljanstvom (pri katerih se med drugim zahteva ratifikacija na nacionalni ravni).
Other acts are adopted by the Council unanimously or by qualified majority after Parliament has been ‘consulted’.
Druge akte sprejme Svet soglasno ali s kvalificirano večino po posvetovanju s Parlamentom.
In such cases the MEPs’ opinion is not binding and it is the governments that have the final word.
V teh primerih mnenje poslancev ni zavezujoče, temveč imajo zadnjo besedo vlade.
This procedure applies, for example, to social security and protection acts, tax-related provisions in the area of energy and harmonisation of turnover taxes and indirect taxation.
Ta postopek se na primer uporablja za varnostna vprašanja ali področje socialne varnosti, davčne predpise na področju energije, pa za usklajevanje prometnih davkov in posrednih obdavčitev.
It also applies to operational police cooperation and to measures governing intervention by a Member State’s authorities in the territory of another EU country.
Uporablja se tudi za operativno policijsko sodelovanje in ukrepe, ki urejajo posredovanje organov ene države članice na ozemlju druge države članice.
The rules on the right to vote and to stand as a candidate in municipal and European elections in the Member State of residence are also subject to this procedure, although the Council may choose — by unanimous decision taken after consulting Parliament — to apply the ordinary legislative procedure.
Postopek se uporablja tudi za predpise o pravici državljanov, da volijo ali so voljeni na občinskih in evropskih volitvah v državi članici, kjer prebivajo, vendar se lahko Svet soglasno in po posvetovanju s Parlamentom odloči za redni zakonodajni postopek.
■ How the EU’s annual budget is adopted
■ Kako se sprejme proračun Evropske unije?
Parliament and the Council, using a special legislative procedure, establish the EU’s annual budget on the basis of the five-year multiannual financial framework, which is established by a regulation adopted by the two arms of the budgetary authority — Parliament and the Council.
Letni proračun Unije sestavita Evropski parlament in Svet po posebnem zakonodajnem postopku in na osnovi večletnega (petletnega) finančnega okvira, določenega z uredbo, ki jo sprejmeta ti dve instituciji.
With the exception of the European Central Bank, each institution draws up, before 1 July, estimates of its expenditure for the following financial year.
Vsaka institucija, razen Evropske centralne banke, do 1. julija pripravi načrt prihodkov in odhodkov za prihodnje proračunsko leto.
The Commission consolidates these estimates in a draft budget, which contains an estimate of revenue and an estimate of expenditure.
Komisija te načrte združi v predlog proračuna, ki vključuje predvidene prihodke in odhodke. Predlog predloži Evropskemu parlamentu in Svetu najpozneje do 1. septembra.
The Council is required to adopt its position on the draft budget and forward it to Parliament, with explanations, not later than 1 October.
Svet je nato pozvan, da sprejme svoje stališče o predlogu proračuna in ga skupaj z utemeljitvijo posreduje Evropskemu parlamentu najpozneje do 1. oktobra.
The budget is adopted if, within 42 days of such communication, Parliament approves the Council’s position or has not taken a decision.
Proračun je sprejet, če Evropski parlament v roku 42 dni po prejetju odobri stališče Sveta ali če o njem ne odloča.
If, however, Parliament adopts amendments, its draft budget is forwarded to the Council and the Commission.
Če pa Parlament sprejme dopolnila, je njegov predlog proračuna poslan Svetu in Komisiji.
The budget is adopted if, within 10 days, the Council approves all the amendments.
Proračun je sprejet, če Svet v roku desetih dni sprejme vsa dopolnila.
If the Council does not approve all the amendments, the President of the European Parliament, in agreement with the President of the Council, convenes a meeting of the conciliation committee — composed of representatives of the two arms of the budgetary authority — with the task of reaching agreement on a joint draft.
V nasprotnem primeru predsednik Evropskega parlamenta v dogovoru s predsednikom Sveta skliče spravni odbor, ki ga sestavljajo predstavniki obeh proračunskih vej in ki poskuša najti do- govor glede skupnega predloga.
The Commission takes part in proceedings and tries to reconcile the positions of Parliament and the Council.
Pri pogajanjih sodeluje Komisija, ki poskuša zbližati stališča.
If, within 21 days, the conciliation committee does not agree on a joint text, a new draft budget must be submitted by the Commission.
Če spravni odbor v roku 20 dni ne doseže sporazuma o skupnem predlogu, mora Komisija pred- staviti novi predlog proračuna.
However, if the committee reaches an agreement, Parliament and the Council each have a period of 14 days in which to approve the joint text.
Če odbor doseže dogovor, imata Evropski parlament in Svet vsak na voljo14 dni za sprejetje skupnega predloga.
The budget is definitively adopted if, within that 14-day period, Parliament and the Council both approve the joint text or fail to take a decision, or if one of these institutions approves the joint text while the other one fails to take a decision.
Proračun je dokončno sprejet, če tako Parlament kot Svet v tem roku sprejmeta skupni predlog ali če o njem ne odločata ali če eden od njiju predlog sprejme, drugi pa o njem ne odloča.
Conversely, a new draft budget is submitted by the Commission if Parliament and the Council both reject the joint text, or if one of these institutions rejects the joint text while the other one fails to take a decision.
Če Parlament skupni predlog sprejme, Svet pa ga zavrne, se lahko Parlament – ob podpori večine vseh poslancev in treh petin oddanih glasov – odloči, da potrdi vsa ali del dopolnil.
The same applies if Parliament rejects the joint text while the Council approves it.
Če eno od dopolnil Parlamenta ni sprejeto, se upošteva stališče, ki je bilo v zvezi s proračunsko vrstico, ki jo dopolnilo zadeva, sprejeto v spravnem odboru.
IS ADOPTED
UNIJE
This is a French term covering, essentially, the rights and obligations that all EU countries share.
Ekonomska in monetarna unija (EMU) označuje proces, ki stremi k usklajevanju gospodarskih in monetarnih politik držav članic Unije, zlasti z uvedbo enotne valute, evra.
The acquis includes all the EU’s treaties and laws, declarations and resolutions, international agreements on EU affairs and the judgments given by the Court of Justice of the European Union.
1. januarja 1999 so bili nepreklicno določeni menjalni tečaji, v državah EMU pa je bila uvedena enotna valuta.
Candidate countries have to accept the acquis before they can join the EU, and make EU law part of their own national law.
Dvanajst držav članic, ki so k Uniji pristopile 1. maja 2004 in pozneje, je zavezanih, da uvedejo evro, takoj ko izpolnijo vsa zahtevana (konvergenčna) merila, ki zagotavljajo uravnotežen gospodarski razvoj v monetarni uniji in preprečujejo napetosti med državami članicami.
Committee of the Regions
Ekonomsko-socialni odbor
Established in 1994, the Committee of the Regions (CoR) is a political assembly providing local and regional bodies with a voice in the European Union. The Commission and the Council are required to consult the Committee of the Regions whenever new proposals are made in areas that have repercussions at regional or local level.
Evropski ekonomsko-socialni odbor, ki je bil ustanovljen z Rimskima pogodbama leta 1957, je posvetovalna skupščina, ki zastopa združenja delodajalcev, delojemalcev in drugih predstavnikov civilne družbe.
These areas include economic and social cohesion, trans-European infrastructure networks, health, education and culture, employment policy, the environment and transport. The Lisbon Treaty gives the CoR the right to bring proceedings before the Court of Justice in cases where, in respect of legislative acts on which it must be consulted, the subsidiarity principle appears to have been violated.
Pogodba predvideva, da se morata Svet ali Komisija pred sprejemom odločitev na nekaterih področjih posvetovati z Ekonomsko-socialnim odborom, na primer na področjih politike zaposlovanja, socialne politike, izobraževanja, javnega zdravja, varstva potrošnikov, gospodarske in socialne kohezije.
The Committee has 344 members, who are regional or local elected officials, appointed by the Council for five years, having been nominated by the Member States.
Ekonomsko-socialni odbor sestavlja 344 članov, ki jih predlagajo nacionalne vlade, imenuje pa jih Svet za pet let z možnostjo ponovnega mandata.

EU KEY
KLJUČNE
The Council meets in various configurations bringing together the relevant Member State ministers: General Affairs; Economic and Financial Affairs; Employment, Social Policy, Health and Consumer Affairs; Competitiveness; Cooperation in the Fields of Justice and Home Affairs; Transport, Telecommunications and Energy; Agriculture and Fisheries; Environment; and Education, Youth and Culture.
Evropska centralna banka (ECB), ki je bila slovesno ustanovljena 30. junija 1998 v Frankfurtu, vodi monetarno politiko držav članic v evroobmočju.
These configurations are headed, on a rotating six-monthly basis, by the three countries holding the rotating presidency of the EU over an 18-month period.
Od 1. januarja 1999 je njena glavna naloga ohranjati stabilnost cen v evroobmočju in izvajati evropsko monetarno politiko, ki jo opredeli evropski sistem centralnih bank (ESCB). ECB deluje popolnoma neodvisno.

The General Affairs Council, however, is chaired by the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, a post created by the Lisbon Treaty.
Banka dolgoročno financira izvedbo konkretnih projektov, ki so upravičeni z gospodarskega, tehničnega, okoljskega in finančnega vidika.
The High Representative conducts the Union’s common foreign and security policy and ensures the consistency of the Union’s external action; contributes to the development of the CFSP and implements it as instructed by the Council, with the aid of the new European External Action Service; performs the same role with regard to the common security and defence policy, and takes part in meetings of the European Council.
Zunaj meja Unije EIB podpira predpristopne strategije držav kandidatk, pa tudi strategije držav zahodnega Balkana. Prav tako skrbi za finančni vidik sporazumov, ki so bili sklenjeni v okviru evropskih politik pomoči in razvojnega sodelovanja.
The Court of Justice, based in Luxembourg, ensures compliance with the interpretation and application of the founding treaties.
Evropska komisija pooseblja in brani splošni interes Evropske unije.
It is composed of the same number of judges as there are Member States.
Ima skoraj izključno pravico do pobude v zvezi z zakonodajnimi akti.
The judges are assisted by eight advocates-general, who are appointed for six years by agreement among the Member States.
V okviru politik Unije pripravlja in izvaja zakonodajne akte, ki jih sprejmeta Svet in Evropski parlament.
It has two principal functions: to check whether instruments of the European institutions and of governments are compatible with the treaties; and to give rulings, at the request of a national court, on the interpretation or the validity of provisions contained in EU law.
Komisija ima med drugim pooblastila za izvrševanje, vodenje in nadzor. Zagotavlja namreč načrtovanje in izvajanje skupnih politik, izvršuje proračun in vodi programe Evropske unije.
The Court also comprises a General Court, composed of at least one judge per Member State, and specialised courts.
Kot varuhinja pogodb skrbi tudi za izvajanje evropskih predpisov v državah članicah.
— Supporting competences or areas of supporting action, where the EU’s task is to encourage, coordinate and complement action by the Member States, include, in particular, health protection, industry, culture, tourism, education and professional training, youth and sport, and civil protection.
S tem je bil odpravljen prejšnji sistem treh stebrov, od katerih sta bila zadnja dva v glavnem medvladna (skupna zunanja in varnostna politika ter pravosodje in notranje zadeve): Sedaj obstaja le en ustavni okvir, v katerem se z izjemo posebnih postopkov, predvidenih za zunanjo varnostno in obrambno politiko, na splošno uporablja „metoda Skupnosti“.
Economic and monetary union (EMU) is the process of harmonising the economic and monetary policies of the Member States of the Union, including the introduction of a single currency, the euro.
Evropski svet je z Lizbonsko pogodbo pridobil status institucije Unije.
On 1 January 1999 the exchange rates were fixed and the single currency was introduced in the countries participating in EMU.
Voditelji držav in vlad držav članic se v okviru Evropskega sveta sestanejo dvakrat v vsakem polletju.
On 1 January 2002 euro notes and coins replaced the old national currencies.
Njegova vloga je dajati Evropski uniji potrebne spodbude za razvoj in oblikovati splošne politične smernice.
Not all Member States have adopted the single currency.
Nima zakonodajne vloge, odločitve pa načeloma sprejema soglasno.
The 12 Member States which joined the EU on or after 1 May 2004 are required to adopt the euro once they meet all the convergence criteria, which aim to ensure that economic development within EMU is balanced and does not give rise to any tensions between the Member States.
V skladu z Lizbonsko pogodbo Evropski svet izvoli svojega predsednika za dve leti in pol, z možnostjo enkratnega podaljšanja mandata. Predsednik, ki ne sme hkrati opravljati nacionalnega mandata, v sodelovanju s predsednikom Komisije skrbi za pripravo in kontinuiteto dela Evropskega sveta in si prizadeva za krepitev povezanosti in soglasja.
EU Charter of Fundamental Rights
Evropski urad za boj proti goljujam
Drafted by a convention including MEPs and members of national parliaments, the charter was formally proclaimed in December 2000 at a European Summit in Nice.
Evropski urad za boj proti goljufijam (OLAF) ima od 1. junija 1999 nalogo bojevati se proti goljufijam, ki škodujejo proračunu Evropske unije.
In October 2007 in Lisbon, at a summit devoted to institutional reform, the EU’s Heads of State or Government agreed to make it legally binding, as called for by Parliament.
Urad lahko raziskuje tudi upravljanje in financiranje vseh institucij in organov Unije.
It finally became binding with the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty.
Pri svojem delu je popolnoma neodvisen.
European Anti-Fraud Oce
Evropsko državljanstvo
The European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) has been responsible, since 1 June 1999, for combating fraud against the European Union budget.
Evropsko državljanstvo ima vsaka oseba, ki ima državljanstvo ene izmed držav članic. Je dodano nacionalnemu državljanstvu in ga ne nadomešča.
The Office investigates the management and finan- cing of all the Union’s institutions and bodies with absolute operational independence.
Lizbonska pogodba določa, da„Unija pri vseh svojih dejavnostih upošteva načelo enakosti svojih državljanov, ki so deležni enake obravnave s strani njenih institucij, organov, uradov in agencij“.
Founded on 30 June 1998 in Frankfurt, the European Central Bank (ECB) is responsible for monetary policy in the member countries of the euro area.
Državljani Unije imajo med drugim pravico do prostega gibanja in prebivanja na območju držav članic ter pravico, da volijo ali so voljeni na volitvah v Evropski parlament in na občinskih volitvah v državi članici, kjer prebivajo, pod enakimi pogoji kot državljani te države.

European citizenship
Evropsko računsko sodišče
Citizens of the Union have the right to move and reside freely within the territory of the Member States.
Evropsko računsko sodišče, ki ima sedež v Luxembourgu, sestavlja po en sodnik iz vsake države članice.
They also have the right to vote and to stand as candidates in elections to the European Parliament and in municipal elections in their Member State of residence, under the same conditions as nationals of that Member State.
Sodišče preverja zakonitost in pravilnost prihodkov in odhodkov Evropske unije (pa tudi vsakega telesa, ki ga ustanovi Unija) in skrbi za njeno dobro finančno poslovanje.
In countries outside the EU where there is no representation of a particular Member State, nationals of that Member State may enjoy the diplomatic and consular protection of any other Member State.
Prav tako izda Evropskemu parlamentu in Svetu izjavo o zanesljivosti poslovnih knjig ter o zakonitosti in pravilnosti poslovnih dogodkov, ki so z njimi povezani. Evropski parlament in Svet lahko tudi opozori na vsakršno nepravilnost.
The European Commission embodies and upholds the general interest of the Union.
Listina Evropske unije o temeljnih pravicah v enem besedilu združuje državljanske, politične, ekonomske in socialne pravice, ki so bile prej priznane v različnih nacionalnih, evropskih in mednarodnih dokumentih.
It has the virtually exclusive right to initiate legislation.
Pripravila jo je konvencija, ki so jo v večini sestavljali evropski in nacionalni poslanci, slovesno pa so jo razglasili na evropskem vrhu v Nici decembra 2000.
It prepares and then implements the legislative instruments adopted by the Council and the European Parliament in connection with EU policies.
Oktobra 2007 so se voditelji držav in vlad EU na vrhunskem srečanju v Lizboni, posvečenem reformi pogodb, dogovorili, da bo listina z institucionalno reformo postala pravno zavezujoča, kot je to zahteval Evropski parlament.
The Commission also has powers of implementation, management and control.
To se je z začetkom veljavnosti Lizbonske pogodbe tudi zgodilo.
It is responsible for planning and implementing common policies, executing the budget and managing EU programmes.
Vseeno pa so nekatere države članice – Češka, Poljska in Združeno kraljestvo – dosegle, da to zanje ne velja.
The European Commission President, proposed by the national governments on the basis of the results of the European election, is elected by the European Parliament by absolute majority.
Odbor regij, ki deluje od leta 1994, je politična skupščina, ki posreduje mnenja regionalnih in lokalnih skupnosti.
The other members of the Commission — one from each Member State, except the President’s country of origin — are nominated for five years by the Council with the agreement of the Member States.
Komisija in Svet sta se dolžna z Odborom regij posvetovati o vsakem predlogu s področij, ki imajo vpliv na lokalni ali regionalni ravni: gospodarska in socialna kohezija, vseevropska infrastrukturna omrežja, zdravje, izobraževanje in kultura, politika zaposlovanja, okolje, promet itd.
One of the Vice-Presidents also holds the post of High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy.
Lizbonska pogodba daje Odboru regij pravico, da se pri Sodišču Evropske unije pritoži zaradi kršitve načela subsidiarnosti v zakonodajnih aktih, o katerih se je treba z njim posvetovati.
The Commission as a whole is subject to a vote of approval by the European Parliament, to which it is answerable.
Odbor regij sestavlja 344 članov, ki so predstavniki regionalnih ali lokalnih oblasti, na predlog držav članic pa jih imenuje Svet za pet let.
European Council
Pravni akti Unije
The Lisbon Treaty has elevated the European Council to the status of EU institution.
Institucije pri izvrševanju pristojnosti Unije sprejemajo uredbe, direktive, sklepe, priporočila in mnenja.
It brings together twice every six months the Heads of State or Government of the European Union Member States.
Uredba se splošno uporablja, zavezujoča je v celoti in se neposredno uporablja v vseh državah članicah. Direktiva je za vsako državo članico, na katero je naslovljena, zavezujoča glede cilja, ki ga je treba doseči, vendar prepušča nacionalnim organom izbiro oblike in metod.
It has no legislative role and its decisions, as a rule, are taken by consensus.
Sklepi so v celoti zavezujoči, medtem ko priporočila in mnenja niso zavezujoča.

The President, who may not hold national office, ensures the preparation and continuity of the work of the European Council in cooperation with the President of the Commission, and endeavours to facilitate cohesion and consensus.
Zajema evropske predpise in pogodbe, deklaracije in resolucije, mednarodne sporazume na področjih v pristojnosti EU in sodno prakso Sodišča Evropske unije.
The President presents a report to the European Parliament after each of the meetings of the European Council and ensures the external representation of the Union, without prejudice to the powers of the High Representative.
Države kandidatke morajo pravni red sprejeti pred pristopom k Uniji in nato evropsko zakonodajo prenesti v svojo nacionalno zakonodajo.
European Court of Auditors
Razmejitev pristojnosti
The Court of Auditors also has the power to report any irregularities to the European Parliament and the Council.
Sem sodijo varovanje zdravja, industrija, kultura, turizem, izobraževanje in poklicno usposabljanje, mladina in šport ter civilna zaščita.
