85As the Advocate General observed in point 33 of his Opinion, interpreting the reference made to the 2014 Commission proposal as an order from the European Council not to introduce the MSR until 2021 would effectively lead, first, to the role of the Parliament and the Council being considered to be no more than rubber stamping the conclusions of the European Council and, second, to the European Council being given the power to interfere directly in the legislative sphere, contrary to the principle of the conferral of powers laid down in Article 13(2) TEU.
