The trilogue that has been negotiating the technical adjustments to the "Juncker Plan" to revive investment came to an agreement on 28th May. This will be approved by a vote in plenary at the European Parliament on 24th June. Compliance with the planned timetable will mean that the plan can enter into force this summer.

This economic, financial and also political project, taken forward by the President of the Commission has apparently been the focus of bitter debate in Parliament and the Council. Has this institutional process brought about a collective adoption of the plan and how will the latter be implemented?

This paper firstly reviews the points debated during the trilogue and the agreement they have reached. It then analyses the constructive nature of the discussions undertaken by those taking part. Finally it looks into the economic environment in which the plan will be implemented.
