Updated information can be found on our website. www.europarl.org.uk @EPinUK 2 3 Introduction by Björn Kjellström, Head of the European Parliament Information Office in the UK Every 5 years over 500 million people in the EU have the power to choose who will represent them in the European Parliament, the world's most open and only directly elected international parliament. Our mission is to raise awareness of its role and powers, of how political differences within it are played out and of how decisions taken by its Members affect the UK. These decisions have a huge impact on everyday life and it makes a big difference who decides on our behalf. Since journalists and the media in the UK play a key role in informing citizens about how the work of the European Parliament affects them, we hope that you will find this guide useful. 4 The European Parliament Information Office in the UK Our Role: We do our best to reach as broad a spectrum of society as we can – both face to face, online and in print. Our dedicated media team is there to answer your enquiries, direct you to information sources and arrange interviews with MEPs or the spokesperson's team. We organise media seminars on EU policy topics and thematic visits for journalists to Strasbourg and Brussels. More generally, our outreach includes lots of events here at Europe House, in our office in Edinburgh and nationwide, bringing stakeholders and the public together with their MEPs, academics and think-tanks. Journalists are welcome to attend these. The team builds links with trade bodies, professions, organisations, NGOs and anyone else interested in European affairs and the role of the EP. We work closely with teachers, educationalists and bodies involved in active citizenship to produce free and neutral resources about the EP and EU, and each year, we answer thousands of enquiries and distribute publications. We welcome interaction from the media and the public through our digital channels and are very active on Twitter, Facebook and Youtube. Our comprehensive website provides you with information about what the EP does, how it works and who's who, including contact details of UK MEPs. 5 Press visits to the European Parliament Journalists are welcome to visit MEPs at work in committee or plenary sessions to keep citizens and taxpayers informed about the work of their elected representatives. We have a journalist visitors' programme which helps cover the cost of travel and accommodation for journalists visiting the Parliament when it meets in session in Brussels or Strasbourg. Journalists are also invited to visit the European Parliament Audio visual studios whose services include: - live video recording of plenary sessions (both satellite & web transmission). - committee meetings (webstreamed live & VOD). - broad news coverage of events available on the EbS satellite service. - audio recordings (& podcasts) of meetings/events and photo reportages.

  • Northern Ireland's Snap Assembly Elections: Outcome and Implications
    CRS INSIGHT Northern Ireland's Snap Assembly Elections: Outcome and Implications March 7, 2017 (IN10663) | Related Author Kristin Archick | Kristin Archick, Specialist in European Affairs ([email protected], 7-2668) On March 2, 2017, voters in Northern Ireland—which is one of four component "nations" of the United Kingdom (UK) —went to the polls in snap elections for Northern Ireland's Assembly, its regional legislature. The Assembly is a key institution in Northern Ireland's devolved government, in which specified powers have been transferred from London to Belfast, as set out in the 1998 peace agreement aimed at ending Northern Ireland's 30-year sectarian conflict (in which almost 3,500 people died). The peace accord mandated that power in the devolved government would be shared between Northern Ireland's two dominant communities: unionists, or Protestants who largely define themselves as British and support remaining part of the UK, and nationalists, or Catholics who consider themselves Irish and may desire a united Ireland. (For more information, see CRS Report RS21333, Northern Ireland: The Peace Process.) Since 2007, Assembly elections have produced successive power-sharing governments led by the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) and the nationalist all-Ireland political party Sinn Fein. Assembly elections determine the composition of Northern Ireland's Executive, comprised of ministers in charge of policy departments. Following the May 2016 Assembly elections, DUP leader Arlene Foster and Sinn Fein's northern leader Martin McGuiness returned to head the Executive as First Minister and Deputy First Minister, respectively. Despite a much-improved security situation in Northern Ireland and progress in implementing important aspects of the peace accord, significant divisions and distrust persist between the unionist and nationalist communities and their respective political parties.

In the United Kingdom, the election for the country’s 73 Members of the European Parliament will be held on Thursday 22 May 2014. The elections come at a crucial junction for UK-EU relations, and are likely to have far-reaching consequences for the UK’s relationship with the rest of Europe: a surge in support for the UK Independence Party (UKIP) could lead to a Britain that is increasingly dis-engaged from the EU policy-making process. In parallel, the current UK Government is also conducting a review of the EU’s powers and Prime Minister David Cameron has repeatedly pushed for a ‘repatriation’ of powers from the European to the national level. These long-term political developments aside, the elections will also have more direct and tangible consequences.
