Solution

The correct option is A Ministers of the Member States
The Council comprises ministers of the Member States. Its membership changes according to the matter under discussion, for instance it comprises national ministers of agriculture if agriculture is the topic under discussion. Unlike members of the European Commission, who are required to act independently of national governments, members of the Council represent national interest. The Presidency of the Council is held by each Member State, in turn, for six months.
