A vote of censure from Parliament...Zero dodging but now you are making a better effort of formulating what you are trying to say we can begin.
If not corrupt, there is no need. Like the PM his position comes up every five years and he will be moved on. The next guy will be elected by the heads of states who are there as the country has elected them.
If corrupt, find what they have been corrupt about, file charges, arrest them, and the President and his commission may be removed from office by a vote of censure from Parliament. Parliament has ever done this to date, however the imminence of such a vote in 1999, due to allegations of financial mismanagement, led to the Jacques Santer amongst others resigning on their own accord, before the Parliamentary vote.
Will the European Parliament then choose the replacement candidate or will the people of Europe be given a selection of candidates to choose from which Parliament will then consider at the end of a tallying vote?
My initial question was fine, by the way. I gave 'corruption' as an example, an incentive that would require the Commissioners removal so as not to become bogged down in the pedantic reasoning for the Commissioners removal. I could have said scandalous or ineptitude but corruption was more biting as there are very few people who could justify a person being kept in a position of authority having been found guilty of it.
