21 – reports

The chart below shows the number of reports adopted in each parliamentary committee between July 2014 and June 2019. ‘Own initiative reports’, represented by light orange bars, include both legislative initiative and other own-initiative reports. ‘Legislative reports’, by blue bars, include reports under the ordinary legislative procedure (co-decision), consent procedure and consultation procedure, as well as procedures relating to international agreements. ‘Other reports’, in dark orange, relate primarily to work under procedures specific to a given committee, such as on the budget, discharge, and questions of Members’ immunity in legal proceedings. The green bars concern procedures in which committees consider whether to object to ‘delegated’ or ‘implementing’ act, which are in effect forms of administrative law, adopted by the Commission under existing legislation.
