The Council of the European Union has recently approved the EU’s legislative priorities for 2017 as agreed beforehand with the European Parliament and the European Commission. This will help the three EU institutions to pool their efforts and to ensure substantial progress in fields where they are most needed. In this concise document the EU institutions agreed to focus, among other, on the follow-up to the Paris agreement and the clean energy for all Europeans package, and on improving waste management in a circular economy.
