The parliament is not in control of this; it has the power to vote directives up or down, and that's it. Crucially it does not control the ECB.

The European Parliament has the 2 powers that defines a parliamentary regime: it votes the budget and nominates the governement. Without Parliament's explicit or tacit will, nothing happens in the European Union.
