Chairperson's announcements (Coordinators' meetings of 28 February and 14 March 2011) Aviation agreements Confidential documents Decision: The procedure for the handling of confidential (EU-Restricted) documents PE460.833v01-00 2/11 PV\860325EN.doc EN relating to negotiations of aviation agreements and the declaration to be signed by the Member receiving these were approved. Coordinators will be able to request a copy of any of the documents whereas Rapports and Shadow Rapporteurs will only be able to request a copy of documents relating to the particular negotiation they are following. This procedure is in line with the approach set out in the letter between the Chair and Commissioner Kallas and respects the new Framework Agreement between Parliament and Commission and Parliament's Rules of Procedure. According to the Coordinators' decision of 28 February a letter of the Chair to Mr Barroso regarding EU budgetary resources for tourism policy was sent. This letter asks for a specific budget line for tourism and for the inclusion of a specific programme for tourism in the next Financial Perspectives. STOA: high-level coordination group Sustainable Energy Prize Award Decision: Ms Ticau as long standing STOA Panel representative will represent the TRAN Committee in the high-level coordination group for the award of the Sustainable Energy Prize in November 2011. Comitology The Chair informed the Coordinators on expert meetings under article 15 of the Framework Agreement with the Commission: The Commission holds meetings with national experts for the preparation and implementation of Union legislation. The Commission may invite Parliament's experts, too, if Parliament so requests. In this context the Chair had an exchange of letters with Vice President Kallas on the ITS Directive where the TRAN Committee may request to be present. As there are no guidelines on who are Parliament's experts at the time being, the Coordinators agreed to the following recommendations: Parliament can be represented when necessary by the Chair who will overview these meetings and by the Rapporteur. The Chair may delegate his 'overview function' to a Vice Chair or the Standing Rapporteur for comitology. A member of the secretariat should attend meetings on the preparation of delegated acts and other expert meetings, if necessary, and should inform Members of the upcoming invitations to such meetings. Structured dialogue The Chairman recalled the deadline for the input of the political groups to the Work Programme 2012 of the Commission: 30 March 2011 with well-focused 4-6 priorities out of which one should be the number one priority. The decision on the TRAN priorities will be taken at the Coordinators' meeting of 11 April 2011. PV\860325EN.doc 3/11 PE460.833v01-00 EN Any other business White Paper on the future of transport The Chair informed the Coordinators of a possible meeting to be convened between them and Vice President Kallas on the White Paper before the official publication. Delegation visit to Morocco from 13- 15 April 2011 The maximum number of seats for the Morocco delegation is 8 Members. According to the d'Hondt system, the allocation of seats per group is: 4 seats for the EPP, 2 for the S&D, 1 for the ALDE and 1 for the ECR. 'In camera' meeting with the new Director for aviation, Mr Matthew Baldwin, on 15 March at 17.30 on ongoing negotiations on air services agreements The Chair recalled the confidential character of the meeting to which Rapporteurs and Shadow Rapporteurs have been invited along with the Coordinators. The presence of political groups should be limited to two advisors per group and the presence of assistants of one per Member, if so wished. 8.

They long to know what the decision-makers are thinking, so they can plan ahead. They yearn to be in the loop, to have the drop on things. It is the genius of the lobbyists and the consultants to understand this need, and to satisfy it in the most imaginative way. Business forums are vehicles for forging links and maintain a dialogue with business, industrial and trade organisations. They allow the discussions of general and pre-legislative issues in a different context from lobbying contacts about specific matters. They provide an opportunity to get Members of the European Parliament and other decision-makers from the European institutions together with various business sectors.
