Location:

Passage of Résidence Palace Rue de la Loi 155, 1040 Brussels

ALTER-EU will present its new report providing an analysis of DG Enterprise and Industry’s expert groups. The report shows how corporate interests dominate a significant proportion of expert groups, while other interests groups, such as civil society groups, labour unions and small and medium enterprises are hardly heard.

Press Launch, organised by the Austrian Federal Chamber of Labour, the Austrian Trade Union Federation and Alliance for Lobbying Transparency and Ethics Regulation (ALTER-EU).

MEPs Monica Macovei (Romania, EPP) and Dennis de Jong (The Netherlands, GUE/NGL) have confirmed their presence on the panel and will share their views on how the Parliament and Commission can work together to improve expert groups’ transparency and balance.

Lluís PRATS Acting Director of DG Enterprise's Directorate Resources and Communication will represent the European Commission

A lunch with sandwiches will be provided for. We look forward to having you with us.

RSVP by 6 July to Bruno Nicostrate at ceo@corporateeurope.org
