Detailed explanation-1: -It was signed in February 1986 in Luxembourg and The Hague and entered into force on July 1, 1987.
Detailed explanation-2: -The amending treaty was signed at Luxembourg City on 17 February 1986 and at The Hague on 28 February 1986. It came into effect on 1 July 1987, under the Delors Commission.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Single European Act (SEA) sought to revise the Treaties of Rome setting up the European Economic Community (EEC) and the European Atomic Energy Community.
Detailed explanation-4: -In a referendum in 1975 the UK electorate voted to stay in the EEC under renegotiated terms of entry. The first major Treaty change was the Single European Act, which created an internal market with voting by qualified majority (QMV) rather than unanimity. The Single Market was established at the end of 1992.
Detailed explanation-5: -To complement the shift of decision-making from unanimity to QMV, the SEA also increased the legislative authority of the European Parliament by introducing the cooperation procedure. This was intended to help close the EC’s perceived democratic deficit, or at least to prevent it from widening.
