Subject matter Name Authority List

The Subject matter classification shows the concepts used for the indexation of notices published on EUR-Lex. The subject matter classification exists in parallel with two other classifications: the Directory of European Union Legislation and EuroVoc. Differently from these, the subject matter classification is aligned strictly to the evolution of European Union policies cited in the different treaties of the European Union that can be consulted at: http://eur-lex.europa.eu/collection/eu-law/treaties.html?locale=en.The content of the subject matter classification is managed by the GIL working group (Inter-institutional Group on Legislation).
