"In the context of the codecision procedure, any unilateral statements entered in the minutes of Council meetings weaken the legal force of the adopted legislation. As such, they may affect the Parliament’s colegislator role.
Such contentious statements originate mostly from one or more Member States, because the Member States are responsible for the transposition of legislation at a national level.
The Council’s rules of procedure amended by the Lisbon Treaty ensure direct delivery of the minutes from the legislative part of the Council meetings to the Member States and to their national parliaments but do not mention the European Parliament. This provides an advantage to the national parliaments over the European Parliament although the European Parliament is the colegislator of the Council.
Unilateral statements made by the Member States in respect of the legislation should not be published in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It is necessary to prevent any reference to such unilateral statements and to ensure the provision of complete information by the Council to Parliament during all stages of the legislative process."@en1
