The European Parliament adopted a resolution on the consequences of the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon for ongoing interinstitutional decision-making procedures – “omnibus”.

The Parliament has verified the completeness of the Commission Communication as well as its correctness, in particular regarding the legal basis and the procedure under the Treaty of Lisbon indicated by the Commission in its lists. As a consequence, the European Parliament:

considers that the Treaty of Lisbon establishes a new legal framework affecting pending files, notably owing to the changes made to their legal basis and/or the relevant procedures. Consequently, it takes note of a list of 10 procedures (listed in the resolution) for which it wishes a new or an amended Commission proposal, or, where appropriate, a re-consultation by the Council of Ministers in order to take that new framework into due account and calls on both Institutions to comply with these requests; confirms its position as regards 29 procedures (listed in the resolution) which changed under the Treaty of Lisbon from consultation to the ordinary legislative procedure, from consultation to consent or from assent to consent; decides not to confirm its position already taken as regards four procedures (listed in the resolution) and underlines that it wishes to proceed to a new first reading of the original proposal.
