Are you a European public affairs professional who believes that the way public policy is designed shapes the results it delivers? Many of us have seen the gap between principle and practice:
- Public consultations that come too late to shape the outcome.
- Impact assessments treated as an afterthought rather than a serious exercise in gathering and assessing evidence.
- Complex policy decisions moving quickly, with too little time for accountability, transparency and proper scrutiny.
At SEAP, evidence-based policymaking, accountability and transparency are not slogans. They are the foundations of effective and credible public policy. The European institutions are formally committed to these principles. But commitment on paper does not always translate into practice.
That is why SEAP is launching a dedicated Better Regulation Working Group, open to all members. The group will provide a forum to exchange ideas, develop best practices and engage with the European institutions on how to strengthen the quality of EU policymaking.
If these issues matter to you, we invite you to join the conversation. Register now for our online launch meeting on 24 June 2026 from 17:00 to 18:00 CEST. Check your email inbox for the registration link. Better regulation starts with better engagement. Join us!
