Handbook on EU secondary legislation

98% of EU rules are decided via Comitology and delegated acts, rather than via legislation. This shows the importance of these decision-making processes. The procedures are complex with many exceptions and derogations. Academic books have been published on the subject: they explain the “what” comitology and delegated acts are, but are silent on “how to” effectively operate in these processes. 
What European affairs practitioners need is a manual explaining each step of the different processes with diagrams, concrete cases, practical explanations. This is exactly what the Handbook on secondary legislation is all about : a book designed by practitioners for practitioners.
An indispensable tool to navigate effi ciently through the labyrinth of decision-making procedures.
