(The Council threshold is higher [72% % of the members and representing 65% of the population] otherwise.) | |
| Jan 1, 2020 at 9:08 | comment | added | Joe C | The exact requirements will depend on the laws in each individual country. I believe they all require at least a vote in their national parliament, while some will have additional requirements on top of this (eg. Belgian law will also require the consent of regional parliaments). But this applies to the future trade deal (if one is reached), not to the withdrawal agreement. | |
| Jan 1, 2020 at 9:00 | comment | added | WS2 | But presumably any eventual trade agreement requires parliamentary support in all countries? | |
