This new annual directory – by Brussels-based publishing house The European Lawyer – offers academic and professional biographical details of those in the European Commission, Council and Parliament, and the Courts of Justice in Luxembourg involved in the legal decision-making processes. Lawyers and regulatory specialists steering their companies and clients through the increasing reams of EU law and Brussels-based regulatory processes are often faced with opaque institutions and faceless staff. Described by Commission Vice-President Siim Kallas as ‘a useful tool to enhance transparency’, the book also includes textual analysis to guide professionals through the decision-making and lobbying processes, and lists of private practice, in-house lawyers and lobbyists in Brussels. A variety of articles by specialists and academics casts light on recent developments and current debates within the field of European regulation. |
