National parliaments have long been neglected in the European integration process, although the Lisbon Treaty significantly improved their status. Nonetheless, this article argues that there is still some margin for improvement. This article explains why this situation must be urgently remedied and proposes some pragmatic solutions to this end. It is argued that national parliaments should receive more information directly, that mechanisms to guarantee the collective accountability of the Council and the European Council should be introduced, and that certain safeguards are needed to ensure a level playing field among national parliaments in their relationship to EU institutions and bodies. This would help to address the existing imbalance between the way in which today's EU operates, and national parliaments' limited possibility to participate at the EU level.

如何确保各国议会（真正）“为（明天）欧盟的良好运作做出积极贡献”？

各国议会在欧洲一体化进程中长期以来一直被忽视，尽管《里斯本条约》显着提高了它们的地位。尽管如此，本文认为仍有一些改进的余地。本文解释了为什么必须紧急纠正这种情况，并为此提出一些务实的解决方案。有人认为，各国议会应直接接收更多信息，应引入保障理事会和欧洲理事会集体问责的机制，并且需要某些保障措施以确保各国议会在与欧盟的关系中公平竞争机构和团体。这将有助于解决当今欧盟运作方式与各国议会之间存在的不平衡。
