Charter of Fundamental Rights dignity and freedoms - equality and solidarity - citizens’ rights and justice Part 3 Policies and functioning of the EU: - justice and home affairs - EU’s external actions - economic and monetary policy and EU finances - internal market and other policies Part 4 General and final provisions: - treaty revision procedures - ratification and entry into force The Constitutional Treaty is overall comprised of four parts, cf. the overview in Chart 1. Part I comprises definitions of the EU, its values, objectives, competences, decision-making procedures and institutions. Part II incorporates the Charter of Fundamental Rights. Part III, the most extensive part of the Treaty, contains detailed descriptions of the policies and functioning of the EU, including economic and monetary cooperation. Part IV contains the general and final provisions, such as procedures for adoption of treaty revisions. In addition, there are a number of related protocols and declarations, including the Protocol on the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank. The Constitutional Treaty establishes that the institutional framework of the EU comprises the European Parliament, the European Council, the Council of Ministers, the European Commission and the European Court of Justice. These institutions are described in Box 1. The Euro- pean Central Bank, the ECB, does not form part of the institutional framework of the EU and is therefore mentioned under "other institu- tions". The Constitutional Treaty leaves the institutional structure largely intact, but, as will appear, brings a number of changes in the functioning of the individual institutions. This is to ensure that the EU institutions are efficient and democratic also in the enlarged EU of 25 or more member states.
