Document Summary

Types of competence in law cases exclusive/shared/supporting. Exclusive competence: this first possibility where only the eu can act, the ms only able to act if expressly empowered by an act of the eu or only act for its implementation art3 (2(1)?) Because to achieve the eu objectives, required to have an harmonised area in that case (e. g: competition rules, customs union (tariffs, etc), monetary policy, etc) Shared competence; between ms and eu - once the eu has acted/ adopted legislation, the ms are not allowed to act anymore (principle of pre-emption art2(2)tfeu)/ the eu has decided to cease exercising its competence. In practice: the powers of ms become smaller and smaller- the most difficult = internal market: this area is so broad that it can cover many types of legislation (not that simple) 6 tfeu) - no harmonisation in this area eu only supports, coordinates, supplements.
