European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen’s executive began work on the 1 December. Read here all the details and figures on the self-dubbed “geopolitical Commission”.

UPDATE: After Ireland’s Phil Hogan tendered his resignation, the government must now propose a new candidate for the empty slot.

After a lengthy approval process, which saw three candidates rejected by the European Parliament and the United Kingdom refuse to name a candidate, von der Leyen’s Commission composing of 27 members has now taken office.

The 2019-2024 Commission has three executive vice-presidents in Frans Timmermans, Margrethe Vestager and Valdis Dombrokvskis. They will also serve as regular Commissioners, not just coordinators.

There are also five regular vice-presidents: Josep Borrell, Věra Jourová, Margaritis Schinas, Maroš Šefčovič and Dubravka Šuica.
