According to the Treaty on European Union (TEU), the European Parliament shall, jointly with the Council, exercise legislative and budgetary functions. It shall also exercise functions of political control and consultation as laid down in the Treaties1. The Council of the European Union, also known as the Council, is the institution that represents the governments of the Member States. Together with the European Parliament, it adopts European legislation and coordinates the policies of the Member States2. The other options are not correct because: (A) The European Commission is the institution that proposes and implements EU policies, ensures the application of EU law, and represents the Union in international affairs3; (B) The Article 29 Working Party was an advisory body composed of representatives of the national data protection authorities, the European Data Protection Supervisor and the European Commission. It was replaced by the European Data Protection Board in 20184; (D) The European Data Protection Board is an independent body that ensures the consistent application of the General Data Protection Regulation and promotes cooperation among the national data protection authorities5. References: 1: Article 14(1) of the TEU; 2: The Council of the European Union; 3: The European Commission; 4: Article 29 Working Party; 5: [European Data Protection Board].
