Ideas for the future
A more democratic and transparent Europe• That will give more importance to the European
Parliament (elected by citizens of the EU), and to each of the national parliaments.
• A stronger voice for European citizens: thanks to the Citizens' Initiative, one million citizens from a number of Member States will have the possibility have proposals analyzed.
• The Treaty recognises for the first time the possibility for a member to withdraw the Union.

In particular, it guarantees the freedoms and gives its provisions a binding legal force, it concerns civil, political, economic and social rights. •Solidarity between Member States: the Treaty provides that the Member States act jointly if a Member State is the subject of a terrorist attack or the victim of a natural or man-made disaster. •Increased security for all: with direct benefits for fighting crime and terrorism. New provisions on civil protection, humanitarian aid and public health and threats to the security of European citizens.
