The fundamental task of the European Council – consisting primarily of the heads of state or government in the EU member states – has been to define the EU´s general political direction. Its influence and scope of intervention, however, is gradually increasing. With the Lisbon Treaty it was given a status of an EU institution and its meetings are since chaired by a permanent president. The European Council has been playing a pivotal decision-making role during the euro crisis, and it now emerges as the EU´s new power centre.

Target group
EU regulatory affairs professionals from business and professional associations, officials and specialists in the national administrations and EU institutions who are non-lawyers but are affected – directly or indirectly – by European Union legislation (e.g. by participation in EU law-making, law approximation or application of national laws derived from EU law) as well as other professionals wishing to gain or expand their knowledge of EU law.
