On 15 May, the Committee on Legal Affairs will vote on the report on monitoring the application of EU law 2016 (2017/2273(INI). The Committee on Legal Affairs traditionally draws up a report on the annual report by the Commission on the monitoring of the application of EU law.

While Member States are responsible for the transposition of directives and the correct application of EU law, it follows from Article 22 TEU that the Commission has the responsibility for monitoring that the Member States' laws and their practical application complies with EU law. The European Parliament, in turn, has both a responsibility to politically 'monitor the monitoring' by the Commission, as well as an interest to ensure that the legislation it adopts becomes reality in the Member States.
