Seção: ArtigosTítulo: The Informal european parliamentary working group on risk - History, remit, and future plans : A Personal View / Ragnar E. LöfstedtAutor: Löfstedt, Ragnar E.Notas: Sumario: On September 5, 2012 the inaugural meeting of the European Parliamentary Working Group on Risk (WGR) took place in the European Parliament in Brussels. It is chaired by Mrs. Julie Girling (U.K. Conservative), Member of the European Parliament (MEP), and involves some 1012 other MEPs representing a wide array of European political parties from across the EU member state countries, including Sweden, the Netherlands, and Hungary. The WGR is supported by a small secretariat reporting directly to Julie Girling MEP. In this background article of WGR, I discuss the background to why WGR was set up, the remit of the committee, and some of its possible future plans. I do this very much in a personal capacity, having suggested the formation of the committee in the first place and persuaded Mrs. Girling to chair it.Registros relacionados: En: Risk analysis : an international journal. - McLean, Virginia : Society for Risk Analysis, 1987-2015 = ISSN 0272-4332. - 01/07/2013 Volumen 33 Número 7 - julio 2013 Outras classificações: 7Direitos: In Copyright (InC)Referencias externas:
