The Commission was created as an independent body to represent the European interest commonto all the Member States of the Union.
Evropska komisija je bila ustanovljena kot neodvisni organ, ki zastopa evropskeinterese, skupnevsem državam članicam Unije.
It is thedriving force of the legislative process, proposing the legislation on which the European Parliament and the Council then have to take a decision.
Kot gonilna sila zakonodajnegapostopka Komisija predlaga zakonodajo, ki jo nato sprejmeta skupaj Evropskiparlament in Svet.
The Commission ensures the planningand implementation of the commonpolicies(e.g. the common agricultural policy), administers the budget andmanages the Community programmes.
Komisija zagotavlja načrtovanjein izvajanje skupnih politik(kot na primerskupne kmetijske politike), izvršuje proračun in vodi programe Skupnosti.
For the day-to-day running of Community policies and programmes, the Commission relies heavily on the nationaladministrations.
Privsakodnevnem izvajanju politik in programov Skupnosti se Komisija močnozanaša na državne uprave posameznih članic.
On the outside, the European Commissionrepresentsthe Union and conductsinternational negotiations (e.g. in the World Trade Organisation).
Navzven Evropska komisija zastopa Unijo in opravlja mednarodna pogajanja(npr. v okviru Svetovne trgovinske organizacije – STO).
Under the draft Treaty, the Union’s external representation in the area of foreign and securitypolicy will be ensured by the Minister of Foreign Affairs.
V skladu z osnutkom Pogodbe o Ustavi za Evropo bo pristojnost za področje zunanje in varnostnepolitike prevzel minister za zunanje zadeve Evropske unije.
Lastly, the Commission sees that the provisions of the Treatyand decisions takenby the Community institutions, e.g. in the area of competition, are correctly applied.
Komisija skrbitudi za dosledno izvajanje določb pogodbin odločitev, ki jihsprejmejo institucije Skupnosti, kot denimo odločitev na področju konkurence.
The Commission is collectively accountable to the European Parliament which mayadopt a motion of censure in its regard.
Komisija je kot kolegij odgovorna Evropskemu parlamentu, ki lahko v zvezi s temsprejme predlog nezaupnice Komisiji.
Its decisions are taken by simple majority.

The Commission accountableto the European Parliament
Komisija odgovarja Evropskemu parlamentu
Composition of the 2009 Commission: 15 European Commissionersand non-voting commissionersfrom the other Member States
Sestava Komisije leta 2009: 15 Evropskih komisarjev inkomisarji iz preostalih državbrez glasovalne pravice
Since its inception, the Commission has always consisted of two nationals of themost heavily-populated Member States and one national of each of the others.
Od začetka je bila Komisija sestavljena iz po dveh predstavnikov iz držav članicz največjim prebivalstvom in po enega predstavnika iz drugih držav članic.Pogodba iz Nice je omejila sestavo Komisije na enega komisarja iz vsake državečlanice.
The Treaty of Nice limits the composition of the Commission to one commissioner foreach Member State.
Za leto 2009 pa osnutek Ustave predvideva naslednjo spremembo: Komisijosestavlja Kolegij, v katerem so njen predsednik, minister za zunanje zadeve, kibo imel hkrati tudi vlogo podpredsednika, in trinajst evropskih komisarjev,izbranih po sistemu enakopravne rotacije med državami članicami.
This is therefore how the Commission to be designated nextyear (1 November 2004) will be composed.
Poleg tehevropskih komisarjev predsednik Komisije imenuje “komisarje” iz preostalihdržav članic, ki pa znotraj Komisije ne bodo imeli glasovalne pravice.
Designation of the President The Convention has brought no fundamental changes to the way the Presidentof the Commission of the Commission is appointed but the draft Constitution indicates clearly thatand the commissionerswhen proposing to the election of the European Parliament the candidate for the Commission Presidency the European Council must take account of the resultsof the European elections.
Konvencija ne uvaja nikakršnih bistvenih sprememb glede načina, na katerega seimenuje predsednik Komisije, vendar pa osnutek Ustave jasno določa, da ko Evropski svet Evropskemu parlamentu predlaga kandidata za predsedovanje Komisiji, mora upoštevati rezultate volitev v Evropski parlament.
The draft Constitution stipulates that the commissionerswill be appointed bythe Commission President from a listof three people (including at least onewoman) drawn up by each country.
Osnutek Ustave predvideva, da komisarjeimenuje predsednik Komisije iz sez-namatreh oseb (v katerem mora biti vsaj ena ženska), ki ga sestavi vsaka državačlanica.
As is already the case, the President and the commissioners,appointed for afive-year term of office, will be collegially put to a vote of approval by the European Parliament.
Podobno kot doslej predsednika in komisarje, ki imajo petletni mandat,kolektivno z glasovanjem potrdi Evropski parlament.

Composition of the Court of Justice
Sestava Sodišča
The draft Constitution stipulates that the Court of Justice comprises the European Court of Justice, the High Court (today called the Court of First Instance) and specialised courts.
Osnutek Ustave določa, da Sodišče obsega Evropsko sodišče, Visoko sodišče(danes imenovano Sodišče prve stopnje) in specializirana sodišča.
Role of the Court of Justice
Vloga sodišča
This is the institution responsible for enforcing Community law.
Ta institucija zagotavlja spoštovanje prava Skupnosti.
It has jurisdictionin disputes between Member States, between the Union and its Member States,between institutions and between private individuals and the Union.
Sodišče je pristojno zaodločanje o sporih med državami članicami, med Unijo in državami članicami,med institucijami in med zasebnimi osebami in Unijo.
It can alsoanswer questions about the interpretation of Community law raised by nationalcourts in the course of a dispute being heard in such courts.
Lahko tudi daje odgovorena vprašanja glede tolmačenja prava Skupnosti, ki mu jih zastavljajo nacionalnasodišča v okviru sporov, ki jih obravnavajo ta sodišča.
This power to issuepreliminary rulings is essential to ensure a uniform interpretation of Communitylaw throughout the Union.
Ta moč predhodnegaodločanja je ključnega pomena za zagotavljanje enotnega tolmačenja prava Skupnosti v Uniji.
The draft Constitution should allow the public to take action more easily againstthe Union regulations on which sanctions are based, even if they do not affectthem individually (as imposed in the Treaties today).
Osnutek ustave naj bi posameznikom olajšal sprožanje postopkov protipredpisom Unije, ki so podlaga za sankcije, četudi se ti predpisi ne nanašajoneposredno nanje (kot je bil to primer v dosedanjih pogodbah).
In addition, it will be possible for infringements by Member States, in certaincases, and at the request of the Commission, to be punished more swiftly by the Court, which can more easily impose penalties/fines in respect of non-transposalof the Union’s law or non-implementation of its judgments.
Poleg tega bo v določenih primerih na predlog Komisije možno pospešitisankcioniranje kršitev držav članic s strani Sodišča, ki bo lahko lažje izrekalokazni in globe v primeru, da država članica ne uveljavi zakonodaje Skupnosti aline spoštuje njegovih odločitev.
The establishment of monetary union and the creation of a single currency, theeuro (adopted by 12 Member States out of 15), led to the setting up of the European Central Bank (ECB).
Vzpostavitev monetarne unije in uvedba skupne valute oziroma “evra” (ki ga jesprejelo 12 od 15 držav članic) sta privedli do ustanovitve Evropske centralnebanke (ECB).
Since 1 January 1999, its task has been toconduct European monetary policy as defined by the European System of Central Banks (ESCB).
Od 1. januarja 1999 je ECB pristojna za vodenje evropskemonetarne politike v skladu z opredelitvijo Evropskega sistema centralnih bank(ESCB).
In concrete terms, the ECB’s decision-making bodies(the governing council and the executive board) direct the European System of Central Banks whose tasks are to manage monetary growth, carry out exchangeoperations, hold and manage the official exchange reserves of the Member States and ensure the smooth running of payments systems.
Organi, pristojni za odločanje znotraj ECB (svet guvernerjev in izvršilniodbor), vodijo Evropski sistem centralnih bank, katerega naloga je obvladovatimonetarno rast, opravljati devizne posle, hraniti in voditi uradne devizne zalogedržav članic ter zagotavljati tekoče delovanje plačilnih sistemov.

Simplification of the instruments at the Union’s disposal in its action took up awhole specific chapter of the Laeken Declaration which established the Convention’s mandate.
Poenostavitev instrumentov, ki jih ima Unija na voljo za ukrepanje, je zajeta venem poglavju Laekenske deklaracije, ki je Konvenciji naložila zadevni mandat.Delo konvencije je na tem področju obrodilo dobre rezultate.
The work of the Convention has produced good resultsin this area.
Osnutek Ustavenamreč dejansko poenostavljaobstoječi sistem.
Six legal instruments
Šest pravnih instrumentov
The typology of acts is limited to six instruments(law, framework law, regulation,decision, recommendation and opinion).
Število pravnih instrumentovje omejeno na šest(zakoni, okvirni zakoni, uredbe,odločbe, priporočila in mnenja).
In a famous speech before Laeken, the Belgian Prime Minister had noted the existence of 36 types of different act!
Med svojim slavnim govorom pred srečanjemv Laekenu je belgijski predsednik vlade pripomnil, da obstaja kar 36 različnih vrstpravnih aktov!
Legislative level and level of implementation
Zakonodajna raven in raven izvajanja
The hierarchy between the legislative level and the level for implementing laws isestablished as in all national legal systems.
Hierarhija od zakonodajne ravni do izvedbene ravni je vzpostavljena tako kot vvseh nacionalnih pravnih sistemih.
The law will determine the essential elements of a given area, the definition ofthe more technical aspects which can be delegated to the Commission underthe supervision of two co-legislators, which will lighten the workload of the latterand who can then focus on the more important aspects of the life of the peopleof Europe.
Zakonureja bistvene elemente določenega področja, uvaja definicije tehničnihvidikov, ki se jih lahko prenese na Komisijo pod nadzorom dveh zgoraj navedenihzakonodajnih institucij (postopek skupnega sprejemanja zakonodaje), kar boolajšalo njuno delo in jima omogočilo, da se osredotočita na pomembnejševidike življenja ljudi v Evropi.
The European Parliament andthe Council co-legislate
Evropski parlament in Svet skupaj sprejematapravne akte
The legislative procedurecurrently known as the co-decision procedure givesthe European Parliamentpower asco-legislatoron an equal footing with the Council.
Zakonodajni postopek, ki je trenutno znan kot postopek soodločanja, daje Evropskemu parlamentupristojnost, da soodločana enakovredni ravni kot Svet.
Under the terms of this procedure a text proposed by the Commission,once the interested circles have been consulted, is adopted both by the European Parliament and by the Council.
V skladu s tem postopkom besedilo, ki ga predlaga Komisija, potem ko seje posvetovala z zainteresiranimi krogi, sprejmeta Evropski parlament in Svet.
The generalisation of the co-decision procedure which the draft Constitutionestablishes as an ordinary legislative procedure conveys the best image of thedual legitimacy, of the states (Council) and the European general public (European Parliament), which is the hallmark of the Union.
Posplošitev postopka soodločanja, ki ga osnutek Ustave preoblikuje v navadnizakonodajni postopek, je lep primer dvojne legitimnosti, namreč legitimnostidržav (Svet) in legitimnosti splošne evropske javnosti (Evropski parlament), kar jeznačilno za Unijo.
However, in certain cases therewill be special laws, adopted by the Council alone or, less frequently, by the European Parliament alone.
Vendar pa obstajajo v določenih primerih posebni zakoni, ki jihsprejme Svet sam ali, manj pogosto, Evropski parlament.
Today, the Council generally takes its decisions unanimouslyor using a majoritysystemcalculating the majority using a system of weighting which takes accountto some extent of the population of individual Member States.
Danes Svet sprejema svoje odločitve v splošnem soglasnoali z uporabo večinskega sistema, ki uporablja sistem ponderiranja glasov, ki do določene mereupošteva velikost prebivalstva v posameznih državah članicah.
Definition of qualified majority
Opredelitev kvalificiranevečine
The draft Constitution introduces a new definition of qualified majoritywithinthe Council: this majority should be simplified and be defined as from 2009 as adecision bringing together the majority of the Member States representing atleast 60% of the Union’s population.
Osnutek Ustave uvaja novo opredelitev kvalificirane večineznotraj Sveta: tovečino je treba z letom 2009 poenostaviti in opredeliti kot večino, ki jo sestavljavečina držav članic in ki predstavlja najmanj 60 % prebivalstva Unije.
Field of application of The extension of qualified majority votingwithin the Council envisaged by thethe qualified majoritydraft Constitution for some thirty provisions for which unanimity is currentlyrequired, will make it easier to take decisions.
Področje uporabe Razširitev glasovanja s kvalificirano večinoznotraj Sveta, ki ga osnutek Ustavekvalificirane večinepredvideva v zvezi s približno trideset področij odločanja, za katere se trenutnozahteva soglasje, bo olajšala odločanje.
But this progress is still too little:the Member States will each retain a right of veto on over 50 legal bases and therisk is that this would constitute sources of blockage in the Union’s action,particularly for adopting taxation-related measures stemming from the internalmarket or minimum requirements with regard to social security.
Vendar je ta korak naprej še vednonezadosten, saj bo vsaka država članica ohranila pravico do vložitve veta na večkot 50 zakonskih aktih, kar lahko blokira delovanje Unije, zlasti pri sprejemanjudavčnih ukrepov na notranjem trgu ali pri določanju minimalnih zahtev v socialnem varstvu.
Amendments of non-essentialelements of the law
Spremembe nebistvenihelementov zakonov
Under the Constitution, it will be up to the Commission alone to adopt delegatedregulations to complement and/or amend non-essential elements of the law,under the supervision of the co-legislators.
Po Ustavi bo Komisija lahko sama sprejemala nekatere predpise za dopolnjevanje ali spreminjanje nebistvenih elementov zakonov pod nadzorom partnerskih zakonodajalcev.
Specific decisions relating tothe CFSP and the area offreedom, security and justice
Konkretne odločitve, ki se Ustava predvideva tudi določeno ureditev postopka odločanja na področjunanašajo na SZVP in območjeskupne zunanje in varnostne politike, vključno z SZVP na eni strani in območjemsvobode, varnosti in pravice svobode, varnosti in pravice na drugi.
Specific decision-making arrangements are envisaged with regard to thecommon foreign and security policy, including the ESDP, on the one hand andthe area of freedom, security and justice on the other.
Nadaljnji razvoj brez potrebe,da bi se vse stranke udeležileokrepljenega sodelovanja
Forging ahead without In order to foster closer cooperation between those countries of the Unionall parties being involved wishing, in a given context corresponding to the objectives of the Union butin enhanced cooperationwhich are not part of its exclusive powers, to go beyond the level of integrationenvisaged in the Treaties, the Amsterdam Treaty introduced the concept of“enhanced cooperation”.
Za države članice Unije, ki želijo nadgraditi stopnjo integracije, predvideno vpogodbah, in poglobiti medsebojno sodelovanje za pospeševanje ciljev Unije vokviru njenih neizključnih pristojnosti, je Amsterdamska pogodba uvedlamehanizem “okrepljenega sodelovanja”.
The aim is to enable a limited number of Member States, capable and eager to do so, to move ahead with European integration,in full respect of the Union’s institutional framework.
Cilj tega sodelovanja je omejenemuštevilu držav članic, ki so tega zmožne in ki tako želijo, omogočiti, da poglabljajointegracijske procese ob polnem spoštovanju institucionalnega okvira Unije.
This enhanced cooperation can be used only as a last resort (when theobjectives of such cooperation cannot be attained on the basis of a treatyprovision by the Union as a whole); it requires a minimum of Member States (thedraft Constitution establishes this number at one third of the Member States) andall the Member States must be free to join in at a later stage.
Uvedba okrepljenega sodelovanja je dovoljena kot zadnje sredstvo (v primeruugotovitve, da Unija kot celota ne more doseči ciljev tega sodelovanja na podlagiobstoječih pogodb). Poleg tega se takega sodelovanja mora udeležiti določenoštevilo držav članic (število, ki ga predvideva osnutek Ustave, je najmanj enatretjinadržav članic), sodelovanje pa mora biti v prihodnje odprto za vse državečlanice.
The Communitybudgetfollows traditional budgetary patterns and is thereforefounded on certain principles: unity (overall expenditure and revenue in a singledocument), annuality (budgetary operations are linked to a financial year) andbalance (expenditure must not exceed revenue).
Proračun Skupnosti je zasnovan na tradicionalnih proračunskih modelih in zatotemelji na nekaj načelih: načelo celovitosti (vse postavke prihodkov in odhodkovse prikažejo v enem samem dokumentu), načelo enoletnega proračuna(proračunski posli so vezani na eno proračunsko leto) in načelo uravnoteženosti(odhodki ne smejo biti večji od prihodkov).
The Commission has the task of presenting the draft annual budget for the Union. The draft Constitution envisages the adoption of the budget by the European Parliamentand the Council using a much simpler procedure than thatcurrently applied.
Komisija ima nalogo, da v imenu Unije predstavi osnutek letnega proračuna.Osnutek Ustave predvideva, da proračun sprejmeta Evropski parlamentin Svetv skladu s postopkom, ki je veliko preprostejši od sedanjega.
The draft Constitution stipulates that a European law of the Council – the “multiannual financial framework”– establishes the annual ceilings for the Union’sexpenditure.
Osnutek Ustave predvideva sprejetje evropskega zakona Sveta ministrov – takoimenovanega “večletnega finančnega okvira”– v katerem se določi zgornjameja letnih odhodkov Unije.
The budget must comply with this multiannual financial frameworkof the Council, which shares the budgetary authority with the European Parliament.
Proračun mora biti usklajen z večletnim finančnimokvirom Sveta, ki si proračunsko pristojnost deli z Evropskim parlamentom.
The Commissionimplements the budget under the supervision of the European Parliament and the Court of Auditors.
Komisijaizvršuje proračun pod nadzorom Evropskega parlamenta in Računskega sodišča.
In practice, a very high proportion of thebudget is implemented on a daily basis by the Member States, particularly asregards those sections of the budget which relate to agriculture.
V praksi velik del proračuna vsakodnevno izvršujejo države, zlasti v zvezi z deli proračuna, ki se nanašajo na kmetijstvo.
The budget is funded by the Union’s own resourceswhich are primarily madeup of a proportion of the VAT levied by the Member States and the levying of acertain percentage of the GDP of the Member States. The limits and categoriesof these resources are established by the Council and must also be ratified by allthe Member States.
Proračun se financira iz lastnih sredstev Unije, ki se črpajo predvsem iz določenega deleža DDV, ki ga v ta namen odvajajo države članice, ter iz določenegaodstotka BDP držav članic.
All the Union’s external action The provisions relating to the Union’s external action have all been groupedpresented under a single title:under a single title in the Constitution whereas they featured in the previousbetter readability Treaties in a number of different places.
Skupinodoločb, ki urejajo zunanjepolitično delovanje Unije, najdemo v osnutku Ustave pod enim samim naslovom, za razliko od prejšnjih pogodb, v katerih sobile te določbe razpršene na več mestih. Zaradi tega je besedilo Ustaverazumljivejše.
This has improved the readabilityof theand greater consistencytext.
Strnitev teh določb omogoča tudi večjo usklajenostdelovanja
