Abstract

The European Union as an unique project and a kind of sui generis organization with its own legal order. Although the EU agencies as such are not formally institutions they can play a very big and comparable role when it comes to policy making and implementing the EU law. This research paper analyses why the EU agencies have emerged and especially in the last 2 decades. Then the focus of the research is on two cases adjudicated by CJEU, namely Meroni and Romano which imposed certain limits and restrictions to the powers conferred to the EU agencies. This case law will be analysied under the scrutiny of two of the the main legal principles - need of effective legal protection and institutional balance. In the final part, the notable ESMA case will be discussed and related to the process of agencification.
