E.U Law

There are two main types of E.U law: primary and secondary.

  • Primary law mainly includes the Treaties; the most important of which was originally the Treaty of Rome itself
  • Secondary law is legislation passed by the institutions of the Union under Article 288 (Treaty on the functioning of the European Union)
  • This secondary legislation consists of 3 types: regulations, directives and decisions
  • Case law of the CJEU can also be considered a source of law
