The European Parliament Liaison Office along with the European Commission Representation in Ireland and European Movement Ireland were delighted to host an in-person event: ‘Where to Next? Looking Ahead to the New EU Mandate.’

This event reflected on the composition of the new European Parliament and Commission, and it provided an opportunity for key Irish stakeholders to have their say on the priorities for the term ahead as set out by the Commission President in her address to the Parliament.
