Membership and priorities of the European Commission

The current European Commission was approved by the European Parliament on 27 November 2024 and took up its mandate on 1 December 2024, thus beginning its five-year term. College President Ursula von der Leyen has made changes to the EC's organisational structure and has made individual Commissioners heads of project teams responsible for a specific thematic portfolio. Valdis Dombrovskis (Latvia) will lead trade and economic affairs within the Commission, Dan Jørgensen (Denmark) will head energy policy and housing issues, and Henna Virkunnen (Finland) is Executive Vice-President for Technical Sovereignty, Security and Democracy. The Internal Market agenda is led by Stéphane Séjourné (France). The Czech Commissioner, Josef Sikel, who succeeded Věra Jourová this year, will be in charge of the International Partnership agenda. Details of the EC's staffing, its working methods and the distribution of portfolios among the Commissioners are described on the EC website.
