The European Parliament announced the format for upcoming hearings of commissioners designated by President Ursula von der Leyen, scheduled from November 4 to 12. Commissioners will demonstrate their qualifications and address potential conflicts of interest before parliamentary committees. Key committees, especially those focused on environmental issues and industry, will be actively involved. Stéphane Séjourné and Hadja Lahbib are among those facing multiple committees. The legal affairs committee, JURI, is currently reviewing conflict of interest declarations, with the hearings expected to lead to a new Commission approval by late November, though this timeline may be optimistic.
