Abstract

The Single European Act (SEA), which came into effect on July 1, 1987, is the first major systematic revision of the European Community (EC) Treaties. It concretizes the EC inherent federal principles and, in certain crucial respects, changes the institutional balance by opening new opportunities for the European Parliament (EP) in the decision-making process. The amendments made to the Rome Treaty were designed to facilitate creation of internal European market by 1992. To ensure a smooth entry into 1992, which is a primary goal of the EC, these amendments were coupled with provisions allowing the implementation of the new decision-making process, so-called cooperation procedure.
