The co-decision trap: how the co-decision procedure hindered CAP reform : how the co-decision procedure hindered CAP reform

Lovec, Marko (author), Erjavec, Emil (author)

Since the 1980s, the European Union’s Common Agricultural Policy has undergone a series of reforms that were facilitated by the changes in decision-making rules such as the introduction of the qualified majority vote. This article argues that the introduction of the co-decision procedure under the Lisbon Treaty, which increased the European Parliament’s legislative powers, has generated a “co-decision trap” that has hindered further reforms.
