Eurooppalaisen kansalaisaloitteen avulla tavalliset ihmiset voivat pyytää Euroopan komissiota tekemään lakiehdotuksia heille tärkeistä aiheista. Kun aloitteelle on kerätty vähintään miljoona allekirjoitusta, komissio ottaa sen käsiteltäväkseen. Kansalaisaloite vaihe vaiheelta
Jos suunnittelet kansalaisaloitteen tekemistä, tutustu EU:n kansalaisaloitefoorumiin, josta saat käytännön apua ja oikeudellista neuvontaa.
On 2 March, the European Parliament will hold a public hearing on the 13th successful European citizens' initiative 'Ban on conversion practices in the European Union'.
On 10 February, the Commission partially registered a European Citizens' Initiative entitled ‘EU initiative to protect stray dogs, stray cats and animals in shelters in the EU/non-EU countries’.
The organisers call on the Commission to “strengthen the protection of stray dogs, stray cats and animals in shelters in the EU and to ensure that EU action in third countries does not contribute to animal suffering”.
Some aspects of the organisers’ objectives did not meet the admissibility criteria for registering a citizens’ initiative, therefore the registration was partial. See the Commission decision for more details.
The partial registration followed a two-stage procedure, in which organisers, in a first stage, were invited to amend their initial initiative, taking into account the first assessment of the Commission.
The organisers have six months to open the signature collection.
On 29 January, the European Commission registered a European citizens' initiative entitled ‘Stop Funding Russia’s War: Phase Out Harmful and Useless Russian Imports into the EU’.
The initiative invites the Commission to propose measures to end the EU’s remaining import dependencies on Russia and Belarus by introducing sectoral bans or decisive phase-outs.
The initiative organisers have six months to open the signature collection.
