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.

Brussels, March 4 , 2015 SUBJECT: the Case of Raif Badawi and Other Prisoners of Conscience in Saudi Arabia Madam High Repre
Brussels, March 4th, 2015 SUBJECT: The case of Raif Badawi and other prisoners of conscience in Saudi Arabia Madam High Representative, We are again writing to you regarding the case of Raif Badawi, Saudi prisoner of conscience, currently held in detention by the Saudi authorities, after having been convicted by the Criminal Court of Jeddah. We remain deeply concerned about the possible developments in his case. We have been informed by multiple sources that Mr. Badawi may be subjected again in the near future to a new trial, this time for apostasy, and that he faces, if found guilty by the Criminal Court, the risk of being convicted to the death penalty. We, therefore, urge you to employ all your best efforts to call on the authorities of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for the release of Raif Badawi, his lawyer Walled Abulkhair who is also imprisoned and of all other prisoners of conscience. Raif Badawi’s alleged crime was to use his freedom of expression, which is an international human right that Saudi Arabia is bound to respect. We understand that Saudi Arabia is deemed an important partner to the European Union, both individually and in the context of EU’s relationship with the Gulf Cooperation Council. Nevertheless, we strongly believe that engagement with third countries must be based on the upholding of international law, namely, international human rights law, and Saudi Arabia is no exception to that. The moment has come, especially now with a new Saudi leadership, for the EU to send a clear message to the Saudi authorities demanding that it respects, protects and fulfills international human rights, releases all prisoners of conscience and revokes all institutionalized practices that actively infringe fundamental freedoms in the Kingdom.

Handreiking Voor Een Bezoek Aan Het Europees Parlement Voor Gemeentelijke Afdelingen Van Het CDA
Handreiking voor een bezoek aan het Europees Parlement voor gemeentelijke afdelingen van het CDA In veel landen in Europa kan net als in Nederland betaald worden met de euro. Bij een bezoek aan het buitenland staan er geen lange files bij de grensovergang en als EU-burger kun je vrij wonen en werken binnen de EU. Dit zijn een aantal voordelen die de lidstaten van de EU samen hebben gerealiseerd in het Europees Parlement. Wetgeving die in Nederland van kracht is, wordt ten dele in het Europese Parlement in Brussel of Straatsburg gemaakt, maar het raakt ons allemaal in het dagelijkse leven. Voor veel mensen lijkt ‘Europa’ ver weg en heeft men weinig van doen met ‘Brussel’. Maar hoe ver weg zijn Brussel en Straatsburg eigenlijk? Niet ver! Breng daarom eens een bezoek aan de Nederlandse Europarlementariërs die namens het CDA actief zijn in Brussel en Straatsburg. De leden van het Europees Parlement ontvangen je graag! In dit document tref je een aantal concrete adviezen aan over hoe je met de gemeentelijke afdeling een bezoek kunt brengen aan jouw CDA-collega’s die werkzaam zijn in het Europees Parlement in Brussel en Straatsburg. Je kunt een kijkje nemen in Brussel of Straatsburg en jouw afdeling laten informeren over het werkveld van een Europarlementariër en de stand van zaken omtrent verschillende beleidszaken. Wij informeren je met wie je contact moet opnemen en wat je niet moet vergeten wanneer je bezoek aan het Europees Parlement organiseert. Voor het opzetten van een bezoek aan het Europees Parlement met je afdeling zijn de volgende aandachtspunten belangrijk: Bedenk bij welke Europarlementariër van de CDA-delegatie je op bezoek wilt en over welk beleidsterrein je inhoudelijk zou willen worden geïnformeerd.

Or. de Justification The proposal violates the subsidiarity principle and would involve a disproportionate amount of red tape. In addition, it takes no account of measures implemented under existing European law. There is no demarcation between this proposal and existing EU law. Measures AM\685115EN.doc PE 390.761v03-00 EN EN already authorised under European law are criticised on the grounds that they would lead to soil degradation. In addition, the proposal provides for a harmonisation of risk assessment in connection with soil contamination with no Parliament involvement. (Schnellhardt and others) The directive breaches agreements laid down in the Treaties and restricts the Member States' right to take action under the subsidiarity principle.

Fiche “Kennis En Innovatie”
Fiche “kennis en innovatie” Context De EU plaatst de nieuwe Europese begroting stevig in het teken van het investeren in onderzoek & ontwikkeling en in innovatie. In de mededeling “Innovatie Unie” roept de EU op meer te investeren in excellentie, wat kansen geeft voor de economisch sterke regio’s met kennisinstellingen van internationale naam en faam, zoals de Randstad. Brede toegang tot EFRO, het kaderprogramma Technologie & Onderzoek en het Concurrentie & Innovatie Programma (CIP), vergemakkelijkt de aansluiting van onze eigen Randstedelijke clusters met brede EU-initiatieven (health sector, agri-food cluster, transport & logistics, cultural & creative industries en bio-based economy). Lobbydoel - Het beschikbaar krijgen van middelen uit EFRO in de nieuwe programmaperiode voor de Randstad. Hiertoe wordt een ‘smart specialisation strategy’ voor de Randstad (P4+G4) ontwikkeld, als onderdeel van de lobby voor de beschikbaarheid van EFRO-middelen voor het landsdeel West. - Steun krijgen vanuit het EU beleid voor de versterking van de innovatiekracht van de Randstad Regio. Daarnaast de Randstadprovincies positioneren in de Brusselse netwerken die zich richten op het versterken van het innovatievermogen van de regio’s (o.a. ERRIN).
