Summary/Abstract: Having assessed the EU documents, the author states that the proposed decision does not have social, economic or financial consequences. When as­sessing documents legally, the author states that the recommendations and the deter­mination of a clear risk are two separate acts of the Council, the recommendations of which are a an act adopted prior to the one concerning the identification of the clear risk. Consequently, the recommendations cannot be part of the statement of a clear risk. The defective nature of the Commission’s proposed decision makes it difficult to assess the impact. The contradiction of this decision with the TEU should be challenged by the Eu­ropean Parliament during the consent procedure or by the Court of Justice in the course of the follow-up procedure.
