    Communication activities

    We have drafted numerous technical and legal briefings on citizens' rights throughout the negotiations.
    We met on a regular basis with the Article 50 Task Force, now the UK Task Force, including several times with Michel Barnier and Sabine Weyand
    We have given oral evidence on citizens' rights and Brexit on several occasions at hearings in the European Parliament (various committee and groups) and regular meetings with members of the Brexit Steering Group, European Parliament groups and dozens of other MEPs.
    We have also given oral and written evidence to the Exiting the EU (later Future Relationship with the EU) Committee in the UK Parliament as well as in the Italian, French, Spanish, German and Dutch parliaments.
