The draft constitution proposes that from November 1, 2009 onwards, the European Commission shall consist of its president, the minister for foreign affairs of the EU and 13 commissioners with voting rights. These commissioners will be selected on the basis of a system of equal rotation among member states. The commission president shall also appoint non-voting commissioners coming from all other member states.
