    in Revista d'Estudis Autonomics i Federals , 14 ,  2011 ,  264-320
    This paper analyzes the participation of the Spanish regional Parliaments, specially the Assembly of Extremadura, in the early warning system for monitoring the application of the principle of subsidiarity, in order to know if this participation helps to correct the democratic deficit and to improve the participation of the regions in the EU integration process. Trough the early warning system, the Member States Parliaments can examine if the draft European legislative acts comply with the principle of subsidiarity. In the Spanish case, it has been regulated that regional Parliaments can contribute to the elaboration of the position of Spanish national Parliament –Cortes Generales- about the monitoring of the principle of subsidiarity related to drafts European legislative acts. The participation of the Regional Parliaments in the monitoring of the principle of subsidiarity is an important novelty resultant of the Lisbon Treaty. The Extremadurian regional Parliament –Asamblea de Extremadura– has established a European Affairs Committee and some specific processes in order to implement its participation on the early warning system Full text available at: http://www10.gencat.cat/drep/binaris/_reaf14_Camison_tcm112-180562.pdf
