  • First President of the European Council European Union Center of North Carolina EU Briefings, March 2010
    Policy Area: First President of the European Council European Union Center of North Carolina EU Briefings, March 2010 The First President of the European Council Years of soul-searching and institutional introspection preceded the Lisbon Treaty’s coming into force. The new EU structure was expected to resolve the decade-long question: “who do you call when you want to speak with Europe?” For candidates who could pick up that imaginary EU phone, Lisbon created two new top jobs: a High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, and a President of the European Council. While another brief in this series (www.unc.edu/depts/europe/business_media/busbrief1004-high-rep.htm) focuses on Europe's first High Representative, this paper zeros in on the first EU Council President. The election by the EU Heads of State and Government of the little-known Belgian Herman van Rompuy for that post generated surprise and skepticism. But when taking into account the lingering practical institutional challenges that have to be addressed, or when aiming for coordination rather than initiative, Van Rompuy could be considered a successful pick. This brief assesses how the EU came to his election and touches upon what is to be expected of the new EU Council President. On December 1, 2009, the long-awaited Lisbon Treaty came into force. For the EU Council – the EU Heads of State and Government – this means that it has become an official EU institution. And while the rotating six-month country-presidency remains in existence, the Council will now also have a permanent president.

The main federal institutions are the federal government and 3 the federal parliament, and the Communities and Regions also have their own legislative and executive bodies. The principal powers of the three Communities in Belgium, which are delimited on linguistic grounds, relate to education, culture, youth support and certain aspects of health policy. The three Regions have powers for ‘territorial issues’, such as public works, agriculture, employment, town and country 4 planning and the environment. 6 5 1. Flemish Region 2.

King Philippe, the current monarch, is the seventh King of the Belgians. In the political sphere the King does not wield power of his own but acts in consultation with government ministers. In performing his duties, the King comes into contact with many representatives of Belgian society. The King and Queen and the other members of the Royal Family also represent Belgium abroad (state visits, eco- nomic missions and international meetings), while at home fostering close relations with their citizens and promoting public and private initiatives that make a contribution to improving society.

It can be accessed through the Europa server (http://europa.eu.int) Cataloguing data can be found at the end of this publication Luxembourg: Office for Official Publications of the European Communities, 1997 ISBN 92-824-1295-4 © ECSC-EC-EAEC, Brussels • Luxembourg, 1997 Reproduction is authorized, except for commercial purposes, provided the source is acknowledged Printed in Belgium FOREWORD The complexity of the tasks facing the Council means that Council working methods need to be redefined regularly. In order to facilitate the work of the Presidency and of the delegations, the Council introduced systematic planning of meetings from the end of 1988 and initiated publication by the General Secretariat of a Presidency Vade-mecum. The entry into force of the Treaty on European Union made the organization of proceedings even more complex: consequently, the Council instructed the Secretary-General to draw up a genuine handbook covering all Council activities. This first edition of the new Council Guide presented by the General Secretariat was compiled under its sole responsibility; it has no legal force and is an internal document intended solely as an aid for the Presidency and Member State delegations. The Guide covers the whole range of Council activities. It consists of three sections, each published separately. The first section- the Presidency Handbook- continues the operation begun with the Presidency Vade-mecum and sets out in a practical context the arrangements concerning the preparation and running of a Presidency.
