, Task allocation
Which level of government is responsible for policies in the EU?
Treaty on European Union (Maastricht, 1992): the principle of
conferral.
This principle governs the limits of the EU competences.
Touchstone principle: the EU has no powers intrinsically.
Art. 1 of the Maastricht Treaty: members confer competences to the
EU to attain common objectives.
Art. 4: competences not granted to the EU remain with the members.

, Task allocation
Which level of government is responsible for policies in the EU?
Task allocation involves four types of competences:
- ‘exclusive competences’: EU decides alone;
- ‘shared competences’: responsibility shared between the EU and
Member States; two types:
• members cannot pass legislation in areas where the EU already has
done so;
• existence of EU legislation does not hinder members’ rights to make
policy in the same area;
- ‘supporting, coordinating or complementary competence’ where the
EU can pass laws that support action by members;
- ‘national competences’: national/sub-national gvt’s decide alone.
