The Commission and its delegates
The Moselle Commission consists of six delegates and, as an option, six deputy delegates.
Its President is elected from among the Commission’s ranks for a term of one year by a majority of votes cast by the representatives. Each of the three states holds the chair in turn and in alphabetical order.
The decisions that are taken unanimously by the Moselle Commission during its twice-yearly meetings are also binding on the states. The votes cast by the delegates count as if they had been cast by their respective governments. The decisions are therefore also transferred to relevant national legislation.
Below you will find a brief overview of each delegation’s representatives:
