Summary/Abstract: Being aware of the corrosive effect of the communitarian law on national legislations, the European Union has tried to limit this danger by increasing the role of the national parliaments, as well by stating the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality, currently enforced by the Treaty of Lisbon. Also, these modifications in this area have been determined by the progresses made regarding the European integration, thus creating means for an efficient cooperation between the European Parliament and the national parliaments in order to guarantee a better elaboration of the communitarian legislation. Though the Lisbon Treaty has brought significant improvements to the communitarian legislative process, the role of the national parliaments is still symbolic, the objective of a better legislation in the European Union remaining a priority and a permanent challenge.
