Yesterday, the European Parliament announced new access restrictions for interest representatives during recess weeks, also known as white weeks. Here is a statement from SEAP President Emma Brown:
“Restricting access during recess periods is understandable. What is regrettable, however, is the confusion created by the way this measure was announced. Once again, actions are taken without consultation with the profession – a performative approach that adds little to real transparency while undermining trust. All of this could be avoided through constructive dialogue.”
