European Union (Scrutiny) Bill, 2001,

Public bill · Private Member · Introduced

The proposal would give the Houses of the Oireachtas a stronger role in examining proposed EU decisions, including legislation, foreign-policy actions and justice matters, before Irish ministers could support them. Ministers would have to provide regular reports and allow committees time to investigate; it would also permit Irish troops to join an EU rapid-reaction force only when it was carrying out a United Nations mandate, with Dáil approval required.

Formal long title

Bill entitled an Act to provide for the scrutiny by the Houses of the Oireachtas of certain proposed measures, to amend the European Communities Act, 1972, and to provide for related matters
