Rule-making procedures in the EAEU

Abstract

The article presents the results of systematization and analysis of the procedures for the adoption of acts by the EAEU bodies. The issues of the fundamentals of legal regulation and practical aspects of rule-making procedures are studied. The question of the correlation between interstate and supranational methods of regulation within the framework of the EAEU is considered. It is concluded that there is a hierarchical institutional structure in the Union, which determines the dominance of the interstate approach and the minimization of supranational regulation. The system of acts of the EAEU bodies is hierarchical in nature, and the only body formed according to a pronounced supranational principle – the EEC Board during the procedures for adopting acts is quite strictly controlled both by other bodies of the Union (the Council of the Commission, the Intergovernmental and Supreme Councils) and by the Member States. As Eurasian integration develops and deepens, the question of transferring additional competencies and powers to the Union’s bodies and expanding the use of the supranational method of regulation, including through the possible emergence of a parliamentary dimension in the EAEU, will inevitably arise.
