On 27 November 2019, the European Parliament approved the von der Leyen Commission in Strasbourg. The new College will have eight Vice-Presidents, including the High-Representative of the Union for Foreign Policy and Security Policy (Josep Borrell).

The Vice-Presidents are responsible for the top priorities in the Political Guidelines.

They will steer our work on the most important overarching issues, such as the European Green Deal, a Europe fit for the digital age, an economy that works for people, protecting our European way of life, a stronger Europe in the world and a new push for European democracy.

The Commissioners are at the centre of the structure of the new College. They will manage the expertise provided by the Directorates-General.

The new Commission will take office on 1st December 2019 and is assigned until 2024.
