Sorry a correction.
You're speaking of the European Commission. The European Commission is the beaucratic engine of the EU and also drafts legislative bills (proposals).
The council is the body that comprises the heads of states who vote on new legislation proposals, this runs alongside the European Parliament.
Certain proposals only need parliamentary approval to become law (if there is already a treaty giving it authority) and others also need council approval when a treaty or directive needs to be approved.
