| | Economy of the European Union - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | All countries in the EU have committed to the Kyoto Protocol, and the European Union is one of its biggest exponents. | | | The services sector is by far the most important sector in the European Union, making up 69.4% of GDP, compared to the manufacturing industry with 28.4% of GDP and agriculture with only 2.3% of GDP. | | | The EU economy is expected to grow further over the next decade as more countries join the union - especially considering that the new member states are usually poorer than the EU average. |

| | The European Union has to seriously consider whether or not such governments should be permitted to continue to manage their economic and financial affairs in a way which represents a direct and flagrant contravention of Article 13 of the Treaty of Rome. | | | The European Union has to review the ability of such governments to manage any European public funds where the record of the management of their own national funds is so abysmal. | | | Already, Central European governments are demanding much in their negotiations with the European Union especially in respect to central budget transfers from Brussels to national governments. |

| | General information on Ireland: Economy |
| | Ireland is currently in a state of phenomenal boom, boasting the fastest-growing economy in the European Union, which is one of the best-performing in the industrialized world. | | | This can partially be attributed to the injection of billions of pounds worth of European structural funds and the efficient management of the National Debt. | | | Also on January 1, 1999, control over Irish monetary policy, including setting interest rates and regulating the money supply, was transferred from the Central Bank of Ireland to the European Central Bank (ECB) which is responsible for all monetary policies of the European Union. |

| | CIA - The World Factbook -- European Union |
| | Domestically, the European Union attempts to lower trade barriers, adopt a common currency, and move toward convergence of living standards. | | | On a few occasions even country-level unions were arranged - the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Austro-Hungarian Empire were examples - but for such a large number of nation-states to cede some of their sovereignty to an overarching entity is truly unique. | | | Members of the European Parliament were initially selected by national parliaments, but in 1979 the first direct elections were undertaken and they have been held every five years since. |

| | EconPapers: Reducing the administrative burden in the European Union |
| | This assumption implies that for the whole European Union an administrative burden exists of 340 billion euro in 2002. | | | For an individual country a unilateral reduction probably has different effects than a reduction that is part of a co-ordinated, European effort to scale down the administrative burden of government regulations. | | | However, a significant part of the administrative burden, over 40% of the total, is the direct result of international, mainly European legislation. |
