Parliamentary Dimension

Co-operation among  the parliaments of CEI Member States has always been an important part of the CEI activities. The CEI Parliamentary Dimension, along with the Governmental and the Business Dimensions, is positioned as one of the three pillars of the Organisation. Throughout the years, the institutional establishment of the CEI Parliamentary Dimension has undergone a process of transformation, which was formalised with the adoption of the Working Procedures, i.e. the “Rules of Procedure of the CEI Parliamentary Dimension”.

The Parliamentary Dimension inlcudes the following bodies:

• the Parliamentary Assembly;
• the Parliamentary Committee;
• the Standing Committee; 
• the three General Committees (on Political and Home Affairs; on Economic Affairs; on Cultural Affairs);
• Sub-Committee on relations with international and regional parliamentary organizations.

The annual chairmanship of the Parliamentary Dimension rotates according to the annual CEI Presidency.
