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. -

Lobbyen Rutte-Kabinetten in Brussel Voor Burgers, of Voor Belangen?
Lobbyen Rutte-kabinetten in Brussel voor burgers, of voor belangen? Door Gastauteur - 1 september 2021 Geplaatst in Boeken - Europese Unie Op 8 september verschijnt het boek ‘Sluiproute Brussel’. Journaliste Lise Witteman beschrijft hoe de Rutte-kabinetten in de Europese achterkamers ijveren voor bedrijven en brancheorganisaties. In Wynia’s Week een voorpublicatie. Hoe Nederland lobbyde voor biometrische paspoorten en Frans Timmermans dreigde lakei van het bedrijfsleven te worden. door Lise Witteman Partijvoorzitter Ivo Opstelten mocht in 2008 dan een marketingbureau in de arm hebben genomen om uit te vogelen wat de VVD-prioriteiten zijn, in feite droeg Ruttes oude rivaal Rita Verdonk ze toen al jaren uit, vanuit de grond van haar hart. ‘IJzeren Rita’ stond pal voor een streng migratiebeleid en voor compromisloze handhaving. Als minister van Vreemdelingenzaken en Integratie tijdens het kabinet-Balkenende II van CDA, VVD en D66 (2003-2006) zette de populaire VVD’er niet alleen in eigen land, maar ook in Europees verband in op een hard-rechts beleid. In Brussel wedijverde ze voor strengere migratiemaatregelen en uitbreiding van handhavings- en opsporingsbevoegdheden voor politie en justitie. Daarmee vergaarde ze in korte tijd zowel een grote schare fans als hartstochtelijke tegenstanders. Het geweten van Verdonk GroenLinks-Europarlementariër Kathalijne Buitenweg behoorde van meet af aan tot die laatste groep. Wynia's week: Lobbyen Rutte-kabinetten in Brussel voor burgers, of voor belangen? | 1 Lobbyen Rutte-kabinetten in Brussel voor burgers, of voor belangen? Volgens haar werd Nederland dankzij Verdonk Europees koploper in inhumaan asielbeleid. ‘Zelfs Berlusconi, die vele tienduizenden liet lijden, heeft een zuiverder geweten dan Rita Verdonk,’ zo liet ze zich in 2004 uit tegenover dagblad Trouw. -
The Netherlands in the EU: from the Centre to the Margins?
Adriaan Schout and Jan Marinus Wiersma The Netherlands in the EU: From the Centre to the Margins? 1. From internal market narrative to a narrative of uncertainties In this post-2008 era of European integration, every year seems to have specific – and fundamental – European challenges. For the Netherlands, 2012 was a year in which it was highly uncertain how the Dutch would vote.1 The rather populist anti-EU party of Geert Wilders (PVV-Freedom Party) had proclaimed that the elections would be about and against the European Union. This strategy did not pay off as people voted for stability, also regarding the EU. However, existential doubts about European integration and the euro have persisted and even increased as the emergence of a referendum movement in early 2013 has shown. Although the number of signatures supporting the idea to consider a referendum about the future of the EU rose to close to 60.000 in a couple of months, anti-EU feelings have found less support than one could have expected on the basis of opinion polls. Nevertheless, a strong and persistent doubt about the EU seems evident in the Netherlands even though it has a fairly low level of priority in daily policy debates. For once because there are few real EU issues on the agenda and, secondly, because discussions on, for instance, Treaty changes or the meaning of a ‘political union’ are being downplayed. Pew Research2 showed that 39% of the Dutch would like to leave the EU and Eurobarometer indicates a drop in public support from 60% in 2012 to 45% in 2013. -

Beyond the Deadlock? Perspectives on Future EU Enlargement
Beyond the deadlock? Perspectives on future EU enlargement E-publication edited Joost Lagendijk and Jan Marinus Wiersma Clingendael Institute, The Hague, 2012 © Clingendael Institute Netherlands Institute of International Relations ‘Clingendael’ Clingendael 7 2597 VH The Hague P.O. Box 93080 2509 AB The Hague Phone: + 31-70-3141950 Telefax: + 31-70-3141960 Email: [email protected] Website: www.clingendael.nl © Clingendael Institute Note of the Editors The Netherlands Institute for International Relations Clingendael hosted a one-day seminar on the future of EU enlargement on the 29th of November 2011. The event was chaired by Joost Lagendijk, Senior Advisor Istanbul Policy Center, and Jan Marinus Wiersma, Senior Visiting Fellow Clingendael. As the title of the conference – Beyond the deadlock? Perspectives on future EU enlargement – indicates, the debate concentrated on the differences between the accession rounds of 2004 and 2007 en the one that is now under way. Both the EU and the (potential) candidate countries operate in a different context that is marked by a much stricter conditionality of the EU which has a negative impact on the speed of the enlargement process. The countries in question, with the possible exception of Iceland, are confronted with internal opposition to the EU, sometimes show a lack of reform mindedness and have difficulty coping with political obstacles like the Cyprus issue in the case of Turkey or the Kosovo question. The agenda of the seminar consisted of three main topics: lessons learned from past accessions, the cases of Turkey and Macedonia, and the future of enlargement. They are being dealt with in this publication from different angles.
