". Following the European Council meeting in Gothenburg, the European Union’s aim is to complete enlargement negotiations on time, so that the acceding states will be able to participate in the 2004 European Parliament elections as members, and this aim was in fact implemented with the decisions taken in Copenhagen. The accession date of 1 May 2004 agreed in Copenhagen achieves this aim, while allowing time for the Accession Treaty to be signed, time which the European Council felt was needed. The conclusions of the European Council in Copenhagen state that Commissioners from the new Member States will join the current Commission as from the day of accession on 1 May 2004. After the nomination of a new President of the Commission by the European Council, the newly elected European Parliament will approve a new Commission that should take office on 1 November 2004. On the same date, the provisions contained in the Treaty of Nice concerning the Commission and voting in the Council will enter into force. The necessary consultations with the European Parliament on these matters are continuing and will be concluded by the end of January 2003. These arrangements will guarantee the full participation of the new Member States in the institutional framework of the Union and the operating costs of their participation in the Union’s institutions will be dealt with under the appropriate decision-taking procedures."@en1
