Incoming European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso is to present to the European Parliament his new team of commissioners on Thursday.

This will be Barroso's second attempt to gain the approval of the MPs for Commission's membership.

It is expected the Parliament to support the new proposal.

In the end of October Barroso asked the crucial vote to be delayed after it became clear that a majority in favour of the Commission was not likely to be reached.
