Paragraph 1
Paragraph 1
1. Considers it democratically inappropriatedemns as undemocratic and contrary to the principle of the rule of law the fact that, three years after the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty, procedures for the implementation of former third pillar acts which often exclude Parliament or provide only for consultation, irrespective of the nature of the decisions to be taken, continue to be used; calls on the Commission to include in its work programme for 2014, at the latest, proposals to amend all legal acts of the former third pillar in order to align them with the new hierarchy of norms and to respect Parliament’s powers, competences and right to information with regard to the delegation of powers to the Commission under the Lisbon Treaty; stresses that this will require an individual assessment of each legal act in order to identify decisions which – as essential elements – need to be taken by the legislator, includingparticularly where they touch upon the fundamental rights of the persons concerned, and those that can be considered to be non-essential (see ruling of the Court of Justice in the case C- 355/01); proposes the setting-up of an interinstitutional working party to this end in order to establish criteria for the use of delegated or implementing acts on the basis of Article 290 of the TFEU; calls on the Council and the Commission to enter into negotiations with Parliament with a view to reaching agreement on such criteria as quickly as possible;

3. Insists on the correct use of delegated acts in the new financial programmes; believes that decisions such as the setting of priorities and the allocation of financial resources among those priorities clearly supplement the basic act and therefore, require delegated, at least, delegated acts, in so far as such decisions only concern existing legislative acts;
