Institutions of the Council of Europe:
• The committee
• An assembly
• A congress
Aim of Council of Europe (Art. 1 Statute): to achieve a greater unity between its
members for the purpose of safeguarding and realizing the ideals and principles which
are their common heritage and facilitating their economic and social progress.
Important institutions of the Council of Europe:
• Secretary general
• Committee of Ministers
• Parliamentary Assembly
• Congress of Local and Regional Authorities
• Commissioner for Human Rights
• Congress of International NGO’s
Treaty law of the EU is imposed in:
• Treaty on European Union (TEU): principles, objects and general institutional
framework of the Union
• Treaty on the functioning of the EU (TFEU): more detailed and operational
principles and instructions
• Charter of the Fundamental Rights of the EU (Charter EU or CFREU):
fundamental rights to be implemented in Union law.
Doctrine of the unwritten ‘general principles of Union Law’ (Art. 6 lid 3 TEU):
all member states have ratified the ECHR, and it could happen that such a Member
State violates the ECHR while implementing EU law. This doctrine was then made and
Member States need to submit to the ECHR as well while implementing EU law.
Art. 52 lid 3 Charter: the meaning of rights in the Charter, which relates to rights by
the ECHR, need to be the same as the rights in the Convention.
The Court of Justice follows his own path in interpreting the fundamental rights,
because it has the specific task to interpret EU law.
Monist system: international law can be invoked directly before national courts
Dualist system: international law must be integrated into national law before the
national courts can allow it and can only be applied in as far as the national law
provides for this action.
Van Gend en Loos arrest: states that the EU constitutes a new legal order of
international law for the benefit of which the states have limited their sovereign rights,
albeit within limited fields, and the subjects of which comprise not only Member States
but also their nationals.
