Which EU institution brings together ministers from each member state to adopt laws together with the European Parliament?

  • ✓ The Council of the European Union Your answer
  • B The European Court of Auditors
  • C The European Central Bank
  • D The Committee of the Regions

Correct!

The Council of the European Union, often called the Council of Ministers, is made up of the relevant national ministers. For example, an Irish minister attends and votes for Ireland. Most EU laws need the agreement of both the Council and the European Parliament.
