Commission hearings, plenary and committee meetings
Hearings: Executive Vice-Presidents and EU Foreign Policy Chief
Having scrutinised 20 Commissioners-designate, MEPs will now question the five proposed Executive Vice-Presidents and the High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy/Vice-President of the European Commission on Tuesday, to evaluate whether they are qualified both to be members of the College of Commissioners and to carry out the particular duties they have been assigned.
The Chair(s) and group representatives (coordinators) of the responsible committees will meet after each hearing to evaluate the performance of the Commissioner-designate. Based on the committee recommendations, the Conference of Presidents (EP President Metsola and leaders of the political groups) is set to conduct the final evaluation on 21 November.
The vote by MEPs on the full college of Commissioners (by a majority of votes cast, by roll-call) is currently scheduled to take place during the 25-28 November plenary session in Strasbourg.

All hearings are public and can be followed live on Parliament’s webstreaming and Ebs/Ebs+.
Plenary session: EU-US relations, EU summits, deforestation, COP 29
On Wednesday and Thursday, Parliament will hold a plenary session in Brussels, during which MEPs will debate the outcomes of the October and November European Council meetings, assess EU-US relations after the election of Donald Trump as US President, and discuss the EU’s civilian and defence preparedness.
They will also vote on postponing the application of the deforestation regulation and debate and vote on Parliament’s demands for the COP29 in Baku. The fight against money laundering and terrorist financing will also be discussed, and MEPs will vote on EU actions against Russia’s shadow fleet so that sanctions against Russia are properly enforced.
