30. Committee of the Regions
Development - Sustainability - Regional development
 The Committee of the Regions was created by the Maastricht Treaty in 1991.

It is certainly no coincidence that the Committee of the Regions and the concept of subsidiary were conceived at the same time, in the same place.
