Thus the Minister will be a member of the Commission, but he will have a special status, reflected in the procedures for his appointment and the possible ending of his tenure: he will be appointed by the European Council, acting by a qualified majority, with the agreement of the President of the Commission; he may be dismissed by the European Council using the same procedure, and must resign if the President of the Commission asks him to do so.
Tādējādi viņš būs Komisijas loceklis, bet viņam būs īpašs statuss, kas atspoguļots viņa iecelšanas un iespējamā atcelšanas no amata procedūrā – viņu iecels amatā Padome ar kvalificētu vairākuma balsojumu, ar Komisijas priekšsēdētāja piekrišanu; viņu var atcelt no amata Padome, izmantojot šo pašu procedūru; viņam jādemisionē, ja to pieprasa Komisijas priekšsēdētājs.
