Articoli Correlati: U.E. institutions - European Parliament - functioning rules

On 25 June 2020, in the judgment in case C-92/18 France/Parliament, the Court of Justice of the European Union has ruled that the European Parliament was entitled to adopt the Union’s budget for 2018 at second reading in Brussels. Indeed, Parliament can exercise part of its budgetary powers in Brussels, rather than in Strasbourg, where this is imposed by imperative requirements related to the proper functioning of the budgetary procedure. The Court also found that Parliament did not make any errors of assessment in maintaining the calendar of ordinary plenary sessions for 2017, following the setting of the pragmatic calendar in April of that same year.
