A number of commissioners were formally nominated and assigned portfolios before being withdrawn after their hearing with theEuropean Parliament , with the exception of Thorvald Stoltenberg, who withdrew after the rejection of Norway'saccession referendum .[citation needed ]
Before hearings held [ edit ] At the end of the Juncker Commission, some were initially named by the member states to succeed commissioners who took seats in theEuropean Parliament before an agreement to not fill the seats under the start of the next commission.[citation needed ]
The Von der Leyen I Commission requested member states name female and male candidates in order to have gender parity. She would then chose the one candidate to be formally nominated, or request new names. She usually continued her request for female and male candidates for vacancies throughout her first commission.[citation needed ]
