Committees in charge of scrutinising subsidiarity

Staff in charge of subsidiarity scrutiny  
There is no staff specifically in charge of subsidiarity monitoring.

Subsidiarity check  
Nature (selective/systematic): Systematic.
Procedure: The procedure is governed by General Resolution 3/VII issued on 4 May 2010 by the President of the Legislative Assembly on the involvement of the Legislative Assembly in the early warning system (available here (ES)). Each Legislative Standing Committee establishes a permanent early warning commission. Once a draft EU legislative act is transferred to the Legislative Assembly by the Joint Committee for European Affairs, the President of the Legislative Assembly allocates the dossier to the relevant Committee on the basis of the subject-matter. If signs of a possible violation of the subsidiarity principle are detected, the early warning commission may request written information from the Governing Council within a maximum of fifteen calendar days and draft a report for the relevant Committee. The procedure must be completed before the end of the four-week period following reception by the Legislative Assembly of the communication from the Joint Committee for European Affairs.
Cooperation/coordination at the regional level  
The Regional Executive cooperates with the Legislative Assembly in drafting reports requested by the latter. Cooperation is governed by the President of the Legislative Assembly's General Resolution 3/VII of 4 May 2010 on the Legislative Assembly's involvement in the early warning system, in accordance with which the Executive has fifteen days to submit its report. For further information, see here (ES).
Cooperation/coordination at the central level 
EU draft legislation is forwarded by the Spanish Parliament (Cortes Generales) to all Spanish regional parliaments. In turn, the latter may transfer resolutions on the infringement of the subsidiarity principle to the Spanish Parliament within four weeks. The legal basis is found in Act 8/1994 of 19 May 1994, as amended by Act 24/2009 of 22 December 2009, regulating the Joint Committee for European Affairs and bringing it in line with the Lisbon Treaty.
