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.

    SCHWERPUNKTPLENUM Jede Stimme zählt Nordrhein-Westfalen vor den Kommunalwahlen und nach der Europawahl Juni 2009 – „Das Volk bekundet seinen Willen durch Wahl, Volksbegehren und Volksentscheid.“ So steht es in Artikel 2 der NRW-Landesverfassung. Gleich dreimal können die Wählerinnen und Wähler im „Super-Wahljahr 2009“ zur Urne schreiten und mit ihren Stimmen die Politik von morgen bestimmen. Nach den Wahlen zum Europäischen Parlament im Mai und vor der Bundestagswahl Ende September stehen am 30. August 2009 die Kommunalwahlen bevor. Die politischen Akteure in den Kommunen und auch auf Landesebene können gespannt sein, wie sich die Wählerinnen und Wähler entscheiden werden.
