decision
an act of the European Union that (unless it comes from the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC)) is binding in its entirety on the person or persons to whom it is addressed whether member state, person or undertaking. It can be imposed by the Council of the European Union or the Commission of the European Union. It tends to be administrative in character. It can have direct effect. A decision of the ECSC is binding in its entirety and thus corresponds to a regulation under the European Communities (EC) and Euratom treaties. See Community law.

decision
In the context of EC law, decisions are addressed to individuals and are binding on those to whom they are directed. Decisions which have general application, such as those addressed to member states, may probably be relied on by individuals before national courts if they fulfil the conditions for direct effect. In fact, there are very few decisions of general application.
