Parliament debates with Ursula von der Leyen and votes on the new European Commission

Following a debate with President-elect Ursula von der Leyen, Parliament will vote on whether to approve the new European Commission that would be in place until 2029.
Between 4 and 12 November, MEPs assessed the suitability of each proposed commissioner, as well as their ability to carry out the duties linked to their respective portfolios.
Now the full Parliament will vote on the entire list of candidates.
To be confirmed, the College of Commissioners needs the endorsement of a majority of the votes cast.
If approved, the new European Commission is expected to take up its duties on 1 December 2024.
