Note on impact of Lisbon Treaty 2007:

Students should note that, with effect from 1 December 2009, the EU treaty frameworkwas substantially altered by virtue of entry into force of the amending 2007 Lisbon(Reform) Treaty. Specifically, the EU's constitutional framework is now composed of thefollowing three founding treaties:

            Treaty on European Union, as amended (TEU)

            Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU)

            European Atomic Energy Community Treaty (EAEC)

It should be noted that the TFEU has effectively replaced the former Treaty of Rome 1957(or EC Treaty). The so-called three pillar system of the Union has now been terminated, sothat the legal order of the EU is now unified, each of the founding treaties havingequivalent legal status.

It should also be noted that the Lisbon Treaty has effected a fundamental renumbering ofthe EU treaty provisions. This means that the nomenclature of the EU treaty frameworkhas changed a number of times since the inception of the Union the 1950: namely, theoriginal numbering of the Treaty of Rome 1957 (or European Economic Community Treaty(EEC)), followed by substantial amendments and numbering changes by virtue of theSingle European Act 1986, Treaty on European Union 1992, Treaty of Amsterdam 1997,Treaty of Nice 2001 and most recently by the Treaty of Lisbon 2007. Blackstone's EUTreaties and Legislation contains tables of equivalences concerning current and previousnumberings of EU treaty provisions.

Further information on the impact of Lisbon may be found by consulting the reading listabove in section A.6.2 and/or by consulting the EU's official website 'europa' (see sectionA.6.6 below).
