Parliamentary Administrations in the European Union

The book examines the impact of parliamentary administrations on EU policy-making, particularly following the Lisbon Treaty. It explores whether increased parliamentary powers have enhanced political debate or led to bureaucratisation. The authors highlight the information-management challenges that prompt parliaments to delegate tasks to their administrations. Through empirical analysis, it assesses the responses of various parliaments, including the European and national levels, and investigates interadministration interactions and their role in fostering interparliamentary cooperation.
