Non-members can now ask to be invoiced for publications, rather than buy and pay online.
Special offer - until the end of 2009, buy any four guides in our Starting Point, How To or Profile series and receive another one free!
We've also started revising 'European information: a guide to official sources', to reflect recent changes in the EU. The new edition will be available early next year.
Meanwhile, we've compiled a brief guide to the proposed Commission. Given that nominees must be accepted by the European Parliament, the team announced by President Barroso might change. However, on the basis of the nominations made, our guide to Barroso 2 provides a brief introduction to the proposed Commission, and lists both Commissioners-designate and the Commission's new-look Directorates-General and Services.
The Treaty of Lisbon is now in force, but the questions haven't stopped. What does it say? What does it change? This 'press pack' might help provide some answers. There are links to video/audio files, photos, press releases, speeches, a guide to the Treaty, and - via some of the pages mentioned - the full text.
The new
Commission
The European Parliament's hearings and vote on the proposed 'Barroso 2'
Commission are some weeks off, but this EP microsite already has lots of information about the
process. There are sections devoted to 'The new Commission', 'Candidates', 'Hearings', 'Plenary
vote' and 'The new Commission'.
