The agenda for each ECOFIN meeting will be published about one week before the meeting. The economic policy issues on the ECOFIN Council’s agenda are normally prepared by three special committees: the Economic and Financial Committee (EFC), the Economic Policy Committee (EPC) and the Financial Services Committee (FSC). Other matters, such as legislative and budget issues, will be prepared in various working groups under Coreper.
