Proposal from the European Commission.

Agenda for a meeting of Council of Ministers

The proposal will also need to be considered by the European Parliament and the EU ratification, if it follows, will only apply to areas in the Luxembourg Protocol which are “EU competence”. EU member states of the EU will also need to separately ratify the Luxembourg Protocol for it to be fully effective in that state.
