Convention on the Future of Europe
The Convention on the Future of the European Union,[1] also known as the European Convention, was a handpicked body established by the European Council in December 2001 as a result of the Laeken Declaration. Inspired by the Philadelphia Convention that led to the adoption of the United States federal Constitution, its purpose was to produce a draft constitution for the European Union for the Council to finalise and adopt. The Convention finished its work in July 2003 with their Draft Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe. .[2]
Result
On 18 July 2003, the President of the Convention, Giscard d'Estaing, presented in Rome the fruit of the Convention's work: the draft treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe.
This draft was the starting point for a long discussion that ended - in the specially convened Intergovernmental Conference (IGC) - with various modifications to the original draft, which merged into the [[European Constitution] signed by the Member States of the Union on 29 October 2004.
The amendments cancelled the increase in the powers of the European Commission and maintain the power of veto on foreign and fiscal policy in the hands of individual states: but "above all, the principle of democratic legitimacy remains firmly anchored in the twenty-five capitals of the EU.
