Founded in 1989 in Paris as an informal forum for talks between national parliaments, COSAC was granted a more permanent status in 1997 by the Protocol to the Treaty of Amsterdam on the role of national parliaments in the European Union. Within the German Bundestag, responsibility for questions relating to COSAC lies with the Secretariat of the Committee on the Affairs of the European Union.
