A plenary assembly will ensure that the recommendations made by European citizens are the subject of a debate, the outcome of which is not determined in advance and the scope of which is not limited to predefined areas of action. The plenary assembly of the conference will meet at least every six months and will be composed of representatives of the European institutions and bodies, in particular the European Committee of the Regions and the Economic and Social Committee.
