  • Dear President of the European Parliament, Dear President of The
    Dear President of the European Parliament, Dear President of the European Council, Dear President of the European Commission and Dear President of the French Republic, We all have a responsibility for the shared future of Europe. In this time of crisis, it is high time to re-evaluate some of the rules we have upheld till now and focus on the most important aspects of the European project, which will help us move forward. An unprecedented health crisis is currently affecting millions of people in Europe and tragically taking thousands of lives. However, this is not the end. The economic crisis will crush the hopes and dreams of generations of Europeans. We sincerely hope that we will all do whatever is in our power not to leave anyone behind. We firmly believe that the European Parliament needs to take on its responsibility and share the burden since it is the highest European directly elected body. We need to be part of the solution, not part of the problem. If we want the people to have confidence and trust in the European project, we need to show them that we are also ready to make concessions. Therefore, we would like to ask you to do everything in your power to change the treaties in order to have just a single seat of the Parliament in Brussels. This call has again gained a large majority of support in the 2018 Parliament discharge resolution adopted on 13 May 2020 and shall now be taken into account and acted upon. The financial and environmental costs of moving the Parliament are, especially in these times of digitally connected Europe, extremely high and hard to justify.

  • A Look at the New European Parliament Page 1 INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMITTEE (INTA)
    THE NEW EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT KEY COMMITTEE COMPOSITION 31 JULY 2019 INTRODUCTION After several marathon sessions, the European Council agreed on the line-up for the EU “top jobs” on 2 July 2019. The deal, which notably saw German Defence Minister Ursula von der Leyen (CDU, EPP) surprisingly designated as the next European Commission (EC) President, meant that the European Parliament (EP) could proceed with the election of its own leadership on 3 July. The EPP and Renew Europe (formerly ALDE) groups, in line with the agreement, did not present candidates for the EP President. As such, the vote pitted the S&D’s David-Maria Sassoli (IT) against two former Spitzenkandidaten – Ska Keller (DE) of the Greens and Jan Zahradil (CZ) of the ACRE/ECR, alongside placeholder candidate Sira Rego (ES) of GUE. Sassoli was elected President for the first half of the 2019 – 2024 mandate, while the EPP (presumably EPP Spitzenkandidat Manfred Weber) would take the reins from January 2022. The vote was largely seen as a formality and a demonstration of the three largest Groups’ capacity to govern. However, Zahradil received almost 100 votes (more than the total votes of the ECR group), and Keller received almost twice as many votes as there are Greens/EFA MEPs. This forced a second round in which Sassoli was narrowly elected with just 11 more than the necessary simple majority. Close to 12% of MEPs did not cast a ballot. MEPs also elected 14 Vice-Presidents (VPs): Mairead McGuinness (EPP, IE), Pedro Silva Pereira (S&D, PT), Rainer Wieland (EPP, DE), Katarina Barley (S&D, DE), Othmar Karas (EPP, AT), Ewa Kopacz (EPP, PL), Klara Dobrev (S&D, HU), Dita Charanzová (RE, CZ), Nicola Beer (RE, DE), Lívia Járóka (EPP, HU) and Heidi Hautala (Greens/EFA, FI) were elected in the first ballot, while Marcel Kolaja (Greens/EFA, CZ), Dimitrios Papadimoulis (GUE/NGL, EL) and Fabio Massimo Castaldo (NI, IT) needed the second round.

    FEDERATION OF ARMS COLLECTORS AND TARGET SHOOTERS Registered with SportsMalta, Reference F007, by the Founding Members Association of Arms Collectors & Target Shooters - Association of Maltese Arms Collectors & Shooters E-mail: [email protected] FACTS QUESTIONNAIRE FOR CANDIDATES IN THE 2019 MEP ELECTIONS Report of the 14 May 2019 FACTS is publishing the results of the questionnaire it circulated to candidates contesting the MEP elections, which are being held on 25 May. There are 41 candidates contesting these elections. Our questionnaire reached 36 of them. 16 replied and 7 accepted our invitation to meet with us. Given that every candidate had an equal opportunity to show his/her interest in matters which are of utmost importance to us, FACTS is advising its members to completely ignore those MEPs who ignored our call. Consequently, we are only considering the 16 candidates who responded and/or came to meet us. Should any of the other candidates choose to reply, we shall update our data and inform our community accordingly. If you know any of the candidates who have not responded please feel free to bring the matter to their urgent attention. We are presenting the results in a factual way along with notes drawn from what the candidates stated and/or have achieved in matters which are relevant to our sport and passion. The object of this exercise is to identify candidates who stand a chance of being elected and who would be in the best position to represent our interests in Brussels. Naturally, our position should be considered in the light of our community members’ political beliefs and personal preferences based on matters of national importance.

  • Werkbezoeken Aan Europese Topspelers Dinsdagmiddag 9
    Werkbezoeken aan Europese topspelers Dinsdagmiddag 9 oktober gingen de deelnemers aan de Europese Week van Regio’s en Steden op werkbezoek bij diverse Europese topspelers in Brussel. Hieronder een impressie uit een aantal van deze gesprekken. Uit het gesprek met Annie Schreijer-Pierik en Jan Huitema (Europees Parlement) CDA-Europarlementariër Annie Schreijer-Pierik is lid van de commissies Milieubeheer, Landbouw (AGRI) en Visserij. De groep sprak onder meer met haar over het voorstel over het Gemeenschappelijk Landbouwbeleid (GLB) na 2020, dat de Europese Commissie op 1 juni heeft gepresenteerd. Volgens de plannen van de Europese Commissie krimpt het GLB-budget fors. Brussel kiest voor een 15% lager budget, maar gaat wel meer eisen stellen over klimaat en kringlooplandbouw. Inzet van het CDA: overheveling van budget van pijler 1 (directe inkomenssteun boeren) naar pijler 2 (plattelandsontwikkeling). Europarlementariër Jan Huitema (VVD) ziet een kans in het lagere budget: “Door de bezuinigingen op het budget voor de landbouwsector wordt de urgentie meer en meer gevoeld om de concurrentiepositie van de boer met een modern landbouwbeleid te versterken. Dit is een kans, ook voor de Nederlandse, en Twentse, landbouwsector”. Met directe inkomenssteun wordt volgens Huitema de concurrentiepositie van de Europese landbouwsector niet verbeterd. Huitema: “Het is luie politiek”. En natuurlijk kon een bezoek aan een commissievergadering, waar op dat moment door de leden van de AGRI-commissie werd gediscussieerd over de toekomst van het GLB, niet ontbreken. Uit het gesprek met Lodewijk Buschkens (ICODA Public Affairs) Lodewijk Buschkens is mede oprichter van ICODA European Affairs, een full service public affairs bureau in Brussel. Zijn bureau adviseert sinds jaar en dag diverse opdrachtgevers op het gebied van belangenbehartiging in Brussel.
