After the meeting he will decide, whether he deems her fit for the post and which portfolio to give her, this will probably be known tomorrow. Violeta Bulc arrived in Brussels yesterday. If Juncker gives Bulc a different post and allocates the vice-presidency elsewhere, this will trigger more parliamentary hearings before the respective committees.

Should Juncker accept Bulc as Commissioner Candidate the new list of all candidates has to be approved by the member states of the EU. Following the approval the hearing for Bulc could take place on Monday October 20th. The final confirmation vote on the entire college could be then held on October 22nd.
