    European Parliament Report on the legal personality of the European Union (21 November 2001) Caption: Whereas the three European Communities all have legal personality, and are therefore subjects of international public law, the European Union is simply a Union of States without legal personality of its own, and without the capacity to act at international level. On 21 November 2001, the Committee on Constitutional Affairs of the European Parliament submits a report containing proposals for the simplification of the Union's structure and the recognition of its single, legal personality.

    TEPSA Newsletter – February 2012 1 T E P S A N E W S L E T T E R FEBRUARY 2012 Editorial: J.P Jacqué Architects in the Kingdom Governance of the euro zone The Lisbon Treaty has attempted to establish mechanisms for the euro area governance, but the resistance of member states not sharing the common currency had greatly limited the progress in this field. It left a trace in the Protocol No. 14 that foresees informal meetings of euro zone ministers (Euro Group) chaired by an elected president. Luxembourg Prime Minister Jean-Claude Junker has taken up this responsibility. The difficulties of managing the crisis demonstrated this structure to be insufficient. Tensions notably rose between the President of the Euro Group and the Heads of State and Government concerning the competent authority in charge of the economic management. Indeed, the direct intervention by the Heads of State or Government of the euro zone, meeting in special bodies, has been hardly approved by some finance ministers. Some have suggested creating a finance minister of the Union, yet this wouldn’t solve the problem. It was deemed necessary to restructure the system. This procedure was done in two stages. First of all, the declaration of Heads of State or Government of the euro area of 26 October 2011 established a complex pyramid-shaped structure, some aspects of which were subsequently specified by the Treaty on Stability, Coordination and Governance in the Economic and Monetary Union. First, the existence of euro zone summits in which the Commission participates is confirmed.
