Summary/Abstract: The Treaty from Lisbon brought a series of significant modifications in the European decisional process. The treaty introduces a new system allowing the delegation of certain limited powers by the European Commission, which has the competence to adopt acts without legislative character and with a general application field, that completes or modifies certain unessential elements of the legislative act. The new system replaces the procedure named ”of Comitology”, that designated the means of exerting the community norms delegated by the Council of the European Commission Union, according to which the technique committees composed of national experts were used in the executive process, these taking decisions that influenced the European legislation. This paper intends to identify in what measure is preserved the right to control of the member states over the executive competences of the European Commission in the new system of the delegated acts and of the appliance acts provided by the articles 290 and 291 from the Treaty concerning the European Union Functioning and in what measure the national experts groups that assist the European Commission contribute to the rapprochement of the European administration to the national administrations of the member states.
