The second part contains the analysis of The rules of procedure and representation of the EAEU member states in these committees. Results : to accelerate and improve the efficiency of the decision making process within the EAEU, in the second part of this article, we propose some measures on how to divide powers of different EAEU bodies more clearly and to enhance the institution of consultative committees at the EEC.
