FEP's permanent staff is 4 people. Interns, who are with FEP temporarily, are sometimes included in the list and then removed when they finish their internship. FEP also normally includes its current President in the list of people registered, only to facilitate his/her access to the Parliament during his/her visits to Brussels; (s)he does not regularly visit the EP like the permanent staff. A project officer works on a fixed-term contract with FEP from 2021 to 2024 and is included in the list during this period; he will have limited missions related to the Registry.

Meetings
Meetings
42 meetings found. Download meetings
The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
