Article 11(4) of the Treaty on European Union

This procedure concerns the rules and procedures for the European Citizens' Initiative (ECI), a tool allowing citizens to propose new EU legislation. It aims to make the ECI more accessible and effective for citizens across the Union.

The changes will affect citizens wishing to launch or support an initiative, as well as the European Commission and Member States, by streamlining administrative processes and enhancing public participation in EU decision-making.
