INHALT

Transparency of Trilogues in the Case Law of the Court of Justice of the EU

e-Presentation by Emilio De Capitani

Year: 2025

Topic

The presentation examines the transparency of EU trilogues within the context of CJEU case law, highlighting how the Lisbon Treaty and the Charter have elevated access to documents to a fundamental right. It details the legislative framework, including Regulation 1049/2001, while emphasizing the mutual responsibility of the Parliament and Council to maintain transparency during the law-making process. The speaker explains the inner workings of trilogues and the critical importance of public access to these negotiations to ensure democratic accountability. Finally, the talk references specific legal challenges, such as Case T-163/21, to address ongoing issues regarding the disclosure of "working documents" and the protection of legislative procedures.

Speaker

Emilio De Capitani, former Head of Parliamentary Committee Secretariat, Visiting Professor – Department of Law at Queen Mary University of London, Brussels .
