Written procedure
The written procedure is generally used for all measures which must be adopted directly by the College itself, but which do not require a debate in the College.

Advisory Committee Written procedure
Consultation may also take place by written procedure. However, if any Member State so requests, the Commission has to convene a meeting. In case of written procedure, a time-limit should be determined of not less than 14 days within which the Member States are to put forward their observations for circulation to all other Member States. In case of decisions taken pursuant to Article 8, the time limit of 14 days is replaced by seven days. Where shorter time limits for the written procedure are being proposed, they will be applicable in the absence of an objection by any Member State (see below section 5.2.2.).
