Parliament’s committees will assess the fitness of the commissioners-designate for their proposed posts in public LIVE hearings between 30 September and 8 October. Commission President-elect Ursula von der Leyen announced the portfolios of her proposed College of Commissioners on 10 September.

The nominees are decided by the President-elect and national governments. Hearings will be assessed by the European Parliament committees covering the portfolio for which they have been proposed. The European Parliament will vote then on the Commission as a whole.
