The member states are not 100% sovereign within the EU, there are some mechanisms to control it. For example, Romania (EU member country) has a provision that international treaties signed by the country override local legislation, so that EU directives - while not directly in effect - are above local legislation. Practically, if a national law is found to be not compliant with the EU legislation, the country has some time to adjust it to make it compliant or to repel it. In court cases, the Constitutional Court can directly strike the provision in the law or the entire law, as appropriate. |
