No steps have been taken to address the problem of legislation relevant for EU integration being blocked. The repeated misuse of rules on quorums complicate the decision-making process, delay reforms and reduce the country’s capacity to make progress towards the EU. There are particular problems in the Federation, where competences of the Entity, the Cantons and the municipalities overlap. Failure to harmonise legislation at the different levels, particularly in the smaller Cantons, adds to the arrangement\'s complexity.
