The TI EU Office works in close cooperation with the TI Secretariat in Berlin and TI national chapters in over 90 countries, and particularly with those located in 23 EU member states. The objective of the TI EU Office is to fulfill the European dimension of the global TI movement – to provide Brussels-based advocacy at the EU level that aims to create a European Union in which the daily lives of people are free of corruption. &#xd;
&#xd;
By its very nature, corruption is a cross-cutting issue that negatively affects all citizens of the EU. The many facets of corruption exacerbate the exploitation of the poor and underprivileged, and can have serious implications on the right to equality before law, the right to property, the freedom to perform business, fair and just working conditions, fair political representation and participation, and the basic rights to dignity, integrity and personal security. To alleviate these problems, TI EU works to fight corruption and to create an EU in which all citizens can exercise their fundamental rights in full.</goals><actionFields><actionField

leading the fight against corruption, which brings people together in a powerful worldwide coalition to end the devastating impact of corruption on men, women and children around the world.&#xd;
TI’s mission is to create change towards a world free of corruption.&#xd;
&#xd;
Transparency International challenges the inevitability of corruption, and offers hope to its victims. Since its founding in 1993, TI has played a lead role in improving the lives of millions around the world by building momentum for the anti-corruption movement. TI raises awareness and diminishes apathy and tolerance of corruption, and devises and implements practical actions to address it.&#xd;
&#xd;
Transparency International is a global network including more than 90 locally established national chapters and chapters-in-formation. These bodies fight corruption in the national arena in a number of ways. They bring together relevant players from government, civil society, business and the media to promote transparency in elections, in public administration, in procurement and in business. TI’s global network of chapters and contacts also use advocacy campaigns to lobby governments to implement anti-corruption reforms.&#xd;
&#xd;
Politically non-partisan, TI does not undertake investigations of alleged corruption or expose individual cases, but at times will work in coalition with organisations that do.&#xd;
&#xd;
TI has the skills, tools, experience, expertise and broad participation to fight corruption on the ground, as well as through global and regional initiatives.&#xd;
&#xd;
Now in its second decade, Transparency International is maturing, intensifying and diversifying its fight against corruption.&#xd;
&#xd;
&#xd;
TI is committed to transparency about EU interest representation. TI believes that this register fails basic transparency standards and that it does not provide EU lobbying transparency. When registering, we have therefore chosen to give all relevant information that we consider necessary for lobbying transparency. A credible EU lobbying transparency register should include names of individual lobbyists and the issues that they try to influence, provide precise and comparable financial information on lobbying, and have effective sanctions to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the information disclosed. In an effort to arrive at a more objective way of calculating lobbying expenditures, we follow guidelines that result from consultations with public interest organisations, professionals working on lobby transparency as well as experts of US lobby disclosure legislation. Our registration is therefore providing a more comprehensive calculation of our expenses for activities that aim to influence the policy formulation and decision-making processes of the European institutions, and a list of those who, on behalf of TI, carry out out such activities.&#xd;
Our registration is based on the guidelines for transparent registration developed by the Civil Society Contact Group and ALTER-EU. Find the guidelines on http://www.act4europe.org/register or http://www.alter-eu.org</networking><financialData><startDate>2012-01-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</startDate><endDate>2012-12-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</endDate><financialInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FinancialDataNGO"><budget currency="â¬"><totalBudget>635000.0</totalBudget><publicFinancingGroup><totalPublicFinancing>635000.0</totalPublicFinancing><customisedPublicSources><customisedSource index="1"><name>Adessium Foundation</name><amount>150000.0</amount></customisedSource><customisedSource index="2"><name>European Commision, DG JUST</name><amount>250000.0</amount></customisedSource><customisedSource index="3"><name>Transparency International Secretariat</name><amount>175000.0</amount></customisedSource><customisedSource index="4"><name>Diverse Projects</name><amount>60000.0</amount></customisedSource></customisedPublicSources></publicFinancingGroup><otherSourcesGroup><customisedOther/></otherSourcesGroup></budget><directRepresentationCosts currency="â¬"><range><min>600000.0</min><max>700000.0</max></range></directRepresentationCosts></financialInformation><otherFinancialInformation>The EU Office was mainly funded by the Dutch Foundation Adessium, the European Commission (DG JUST)and a membership fee from TI-Secretariat in 2012.

</otherFinancialInformation></financialData><activities>The TI EU Office runs 5 EU anti-corruption advocacy campaigns: &#xd;
&#xd;
1.	EU institutions policies to promote mandatory EU lobbying rules, robust access to EU documents rules, clear regulations on conflict of interest and transparency in the spending of EU funds.&#xd;
&#xd;
2.	EU justice and home affairs policy to promote the implementation and enforcement of anti-corruption conventions and legislation, better judicial cooperation through the creation of a European prosecutor and the creation of an anti-corruption reporting mechanism for all EU countries. &#xd;
&#xd;
3.	EU private sector policy to promote anti-corruption in the corporate responsibility programmes of EU-listed companies, including the extractive industry; to promote anti-corruption as a cornerstone of EU private sector policy, in particular against foreign bribery; and to ensure the integration of transparency/accountability into the EU financial market recovery measures.&#xd;
&#xd;
4.	Enlargement and European neighbourhood policy to enhance the efficacy of enlargement and ENP anti-corruption policy, programming and funding for these countries. Particular focus is on ensuring early, effective and sustainable implementation of anti-corruption conditions in the enlargement and ENP Policy frameworks.&#xd;
&#xd;
5.	EU development policy to raise awareness that corruption is a major obstacle to development and to integrate the anti-corruption measures and civil society participation into the EU development cooperation policies, programmes and instruments; preventing/fighting corruption within the EC aid management process and with regard to climate change related issues. &#xd;
&#xd;

&#xd;
Parce que 80% de la législation nationale est la transposition de textes européens, comprendre le contexte européen est essentiel pour :&#xd;
&#xd;
• Les entreprises (publiques/privées)  qui ont toutes une vocation à être européenne dans un univers concurrentiel.&#xd;
• Les institutions ou les pouvoirs publics concernés par les enjeux européens (État, Collectivités territoriales, associations, groupements ou organisations non gouvernementales…).&#xd;
• Les médias (rédactions et journalistes) car l’Europe est notre quotidien.&#xd;
• Les laboratoires de recherche (milieu scientifique, fondations, sciences sociales…): la performance et la reconnaissance se déclinent à l’échelle européenne dans un contexte mondialisé.&#xd;
&#xd;
Parce que l’Europe peut parfois apparaître comme complexe, inaccessible ou peu perceptible, notre rôle à « L’Europe à la Une® » est de vous aider à : anticiper, prévenir et influencer ; vous adapter et vous développer.&#xd;
&#xd;
Vos besoins sont ponctuels ou sur le long terme, nous, à L’Europe à la Une®, répondons à votre demande par : une veille législative et réglementaire ciblée ; l'analyse de vos problématiques complexes et l'élaboration de réponses adaptées.

It brings together more than 80 railway undertakings and infrastructure companies from the European Union, the candidate countries (Croatia, Macedonia and Turkey) as well as from the Western Balkan countries, Norway, and Switzerland.&#xd;
&#xd;
CER is based in Brussels and represents its members’ interests vis-à-vis the European Parliament, Commission and Council of Ministers as well as other policy makers and transport actors. CER’s main focus is promoting the strengthening of rail as essential to the creation of a sustainable transport system which is efficient, effective and environmentally sound. Within this framework, a key priority is the achievement of a more balanced modal split in the transport system, eliminating high external costs to society and improving economic efficiency. In parallel to the railways’ own initiatives for improving the quality of rail services, CER sees mobilising adequate investments in rail infrastructure as a prerequisite for achieving a sustainable modal split. CER’s portfolio covers all policy areas with a potential impact on railway transport offering advice and recommendations to European policy makers. Its interests span the whole spectrum of European transport policy: infrastructure planning, passenger and freight services, public service, the environment, research and development and social dialogue. In close cooperation with its members, CER monitors and evaluates the implementation of policies. In permanent dialogue with policy makers it proposes calibration of legislation to address remaining problems. Two railway companies from outside the immediate European area (Georgia and Japan) have become CER partners, opening up cross-fertilisation opportunities on best practices and lessons learned with other regions.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Budget</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Climate Action</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Competition</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Consumer Affairs</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Customs</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Economic and Financial Affairs</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Employment and Social Affairs</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>Energy</name></interest><interest index="9"><name>Enlargement</name></interest><interest index="10"><name>Enterprise</name></interest><interest index="11"><name>Environment</name></interest><interest index="12"><name>General and Institutional Affairs</name></interest><interest index="13"><name>Home Affairs</name></interest><interest index="14"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="15"><name>Justice and Fundamental Rights</name></interest><interest index="16"><name>Regional Policy</name></interest><interest index="17"><name>Research and Technology</name></interest><interest index="18"><name>Taxation</name></interest><interest index="19"><name>Trans-European Networks</name></interest><interest index="20"><name>Transport</name></interest></interests><networking>Member of European Rail Circle, of Rail Forum Europe and of CLECAT.</networking><financialData><startDate>2012-01-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</startDate><endDate>2012-12-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</endDate><eurSourcesProcurement>0.0</eurSourcesProcurement><eurSourcesGrants>37273.0</eurSourcesGrants><financialInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FinancialDataTradeAssociation"><cost xsi:type="CostRange" currency="â¬"><range><min>1250000.0</min><max>1500000.0</max></range></cost></financialInformation><otherFinancialInformation>EU funding was received in 2011 in the framework of ERRAC.

Within ERRAC, all major rail stakeholders are gathered. ERRAC comprises 45 representatives from each of the major European rail research stakeholders: manufacturers, operators, infrastructure managers, the European Commission, EU Member States, academics and users’ groups.

&#xd;
Questa e` una federazione aderente a Confindustria creata per rappresentare al mondo politico, economico e istituzionale gli interessi comuni della filiera delle costruzioni e promuovere condizioni piu` favorevoli per lo svolgimento dell`attivita` imprenditoriale.&#xd;
&#xd;
Federcostruzioni rappresenta un comparto produttivo per un valore di fatturato pari a oltre 300 miliardi di euro e una forza lavoro pari a circa 3 milioni di occupati.&#xd;
&#xd;
La Federazione si articola in quattro filiere: costruzioni edili e infrastrutturali; tecnologie e impianti afferenti alle costruzioni civili, materiali per le costruzioni, progettazione.&#xd;
&#xd;
Il mondo delle costruzioni, cosi` rappresentato in tutte le sue componenti, lavorando insieme su alcuni obiettivi comuni potra` giovarsi della forza d`impatto di un soggetto economico di rilevanza strategica, sia all`interno di Confindustria che sui mercati, nazionali ed esteri.&#xd;
&#xd;
E questo, in un momento di crisi congiunturale quale quello attuale, ma anche di nuove sfide e opportunita` da cogliere, non puo` che essere di forte sostegno alle attivita` di tutte le imprese associate.&#xd;

Distinctive approach&#xd;
&#xd;
BROMOTION team brings together intentionally distinct competencies, mixing the rigor of a scientist with the artist’s imagination and the efficiency of the manager. Creativity and the proclivity to novelty might be valorised in real time by team players from synergic areas of activity, the key to success being a highly performing management.&#xd;
We take a special interest in challenges induced by originality, in translation of viable concepts into immediate market opportunities and subsequent tackling by specific modalities e.g.  win-win partnerships between public and private environment, FP/ NFP structures&#xd;
&#xd;
European vision&#xd;
&#xd;
BROMOTION aims to develop a distinct space for activating synergies, enhancing the opportunities of the knowledge-based economy with rediscovered human dimension. We need to address European integration and globalisation by leveraging human potential, by supporting frameworks that could valorise complementarities.&#xd;
We aim to be an entry point to Bruxelles – the European decision-making crossroads for organisations or individuals, but also an unavoidable interface for non-European players genuinely interested in realising European values and opportunities</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>sub-national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="2"><actionField>national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="3"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField><actionField index="4"><actionField>global</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Agriculture and Rural Development</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Budget</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Climate Action</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Communication</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Competition</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Culture</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Development</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>Economic and Financial Affairs</name></interest><interest index="9"><name>Education</name></interest><interest index="10"><name>Employment and Social Affairs</name></interest><interest index="11"><name>Energy</name></interest><interest index="12"><name>Enlargement</name></interest><interest index="13"><name>Enterprise</name></interest><interest index="14"><name>Environment</name></interest><interest index="15"><name>External Relations</name></interest><interest index="16"><name>Food Safety</name></interest><interest index="17"><name>Foreign and Security Policy and Defence</name></interest><interest index="18"><name>General and Institutional Affairs</name></interest><interest index="19"><name>Humanitarian Aid</name></interest><interest index="20"><name>Information Society</name></interest><interest index="21"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="22"><name>Public Health</name></interest><interest index="23"><name>Regional Policy</name></interest><interest index="24"><name>Research and Technology</name></interest><interest index="25"><name>Taxation</name></interest><interest index="26"><name>Trade</name></interest><interest index="27"><name>Trans-European Networks</name></interest><interest index="28"><name>Transport</name></interest><interest index="29"><name>Youth</name></interest></interests><networking>URBACT - Thematic Experts data base&#xd;

&#xd;
BROMOTION produces and delivers high added-value consultancy, knowledge and paradigm shifting modus operandi.&#xd;
The competitive edge would be recognized around 3 pillars:&#xd;
1. Holistic approach, integrating complementary/ synergetic disciplines, concepts, instruments, trends&#xd;
2. Incorporating innovation and creativity as valuable assets and effective methodological gizmo&#xd;
3. Pragmatic involvement based upon business-, results-oriented approach and cost-effective solutions &#xd;
We address multi-cultural, multi-disciplinary environments, with various institutional definitions i.e. professional and public bodies, interest groups, industry associations, NGOs, SMEs, entrepreneurs, clusters. We accredit innovative endeavours involving actors from private and public, for-profit and non-for-profit sectors, pursuing and championing the principles of sustainable development.&#xd;
For instance as innovative tool we consider Art a valuable communication catalyst, a model of good practice for new interdisciplinary approaches. At the end of the day we thrive to draw up a multifunctional hub pictured with informal, unconventional strokes where people would love to meet, learn and work together&#xd;
&#xd;
Sustainable values&#xd;
&#xd;
BROMOTION system of values would be modelled as a 3D balance mix:&#xd;
● 1Drift – managerial rigour&#xd;
● 2Drift – creativity accommodation&#xd;
● 3Drift – durable chemistry&#xd;

&#xd;
Wir sind Ansprechpartner in allen politischen und gesellschaftlichen Fragen, die Autisten betreffen und wirken gerne an Regelungsfindungsprozessen mit.&#xd;
&#xd;
Wir wenden uns gegen die Tatsache, daß nichtautistische Angehörige oder Funktionäre sich in großem Umfang anmaßen für Autisten sprechen zu wollen. Das kann nicht funktionieren, weil diese Personen nunmal keine Autisten sind und daher nicht wissen, wie sich Autisten in welcher Situation fühlen.&#xd;
&#xd;
Wir treten dafür ein Autismus nicht mehr wie heute noch offiziell weitgehend als krank zu verstehen, sondern als Teil einer gesunden Neurodiversität. Die Probleme vieler Autisten gehen nicht auf ihren Autismus zurück, sondern auf massiv unzureichende Barrierefreiheit. Viele Symptome, die heute noch oft für typisch autistisch gehalten werden, sind tatsächlich Traumasymptome, welche auf die mangelnde Barrierefreiheit zurückgehen.&#xd;
&#xd;
Wir wenden uns scharf gegen die Haltung Autismus selbst als Problem zu betrachten und z.B. gleichzeitig herkömmliche Sprachenvielfalt als wünschenswert zu deuten und sich daher eine vielsprachige EU mit entsprechendem Übersetzungsaufwand zu leisten.

We work with local, national and international institutions among which the European Commission, the European Investment Bank, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, the World Bank Group and the main Regional Development Banks. We are committed to a philosophy of simplicity and of understatement. We think in terms of what is appropriate and of how to add a tangible added value to a Client’s particular project. The Clients, in turn, must be able to appreciate and accept the precious values inherent, but not always obvious, in simple actions. Although our roots come from London, we also have operational offices in Brussels, Rome and Zlín. The first one is our base for the activities with the European Union, the second hosts our unit for the Mediterranean projects and the third is our antenna for Central and Eastern Europe.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>sub-national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="2"><actionField>national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="3"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Agriculture and Rural Development</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Audiovisual and Media</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Competition</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Consumer Affairs</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Culture</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Development</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Education</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>Employment and Social Affairs</name></interest><interest index="9"><name>Energy</name></interest><interest index="10"><name>Enlargement</name></interest><interest index="11"><name>Enterprise</name></interest><interest index="12"><name>Environment</name></interest><interest index="13"><name>External Relations</name></interest><interest index="14"><name>General and Institutional Affairs</name></interest><interest index="15"><name>Home Affairs</name></interest><interest index="16"><name>Information Society</name></interest><interest index="17"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="18"><name>Justice and Fundamental Rights</name></interest><interest index="19"><name>Public Health</name></interest><interest index="20"><name>Regional Policy</name></interest><interest index="21"><name>Research and Technology</name></interest><interest index="22"><name>Sport</name></interest><interest index="23"><name>Trans-European Networks</name></interest><interest index="24"><name>Transport</name></interest><interest index="25"><name>Youth</name></interest></interests><financialData><startDate>2010-04-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</startDate><endDate>2011-04-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</endDate><eurSourcesProcurement>0.0</eurSourcesProcurement><eurSourcesGrants>0.0</eurSourcesGrants><financialInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FinancialDataLawyer"><turnover xsi:type="TurnoverRange" currency="€"><range><min>100000.0</min><max>150000.0</max></range></turnover><turnoverBreakdown xsi:type="TurnoverBreakdownInAbsoluteAmount" currency="â¬"><customersGroupsInAbsoluteRange index="1"><range><max>50000.0</max></range><customers><customer index="1"><name>Zlin Region</name></customer></customers></customersGroupsInAbsoluteRange><customersGroupsInAbsoluteRange index="2"><range><min>50000.0</min><max>100000.0</max></range><customers><customer index="1"><name>Roma Capitale</name></customer><customer index="2"><name>Osservatorio Sanità</name></customer></customers></customersGroupsInAbsoluteRange></turnoverBreakdown></financialInformation></financialData><activities>HAL9000 Limited guides its Clients throughout the decision-making process of all the main International Institutions, providing up-dated information to involved managers, defining and supporting the realisation of professional lobbying campaigns for their initiatives.

It acts as spokesman of the craftsmen and puts forward arguments before Region, Provinces, Commons, Public Boards, Banks, TradeUnions thus playing the role of economic body in the choices and strategies of local development.&#xd;
CNA VENETO associates 20.000 businesses; it supplies its members with many fundamental services, such as: tax accounting, payrolls, income-tax returns. Besides these fundamental services, CNA has created over the territory a solid network of services concerning training, promotion, innovation, marketing, environmental, credit, financial fiscal consultancy and assistance.&#xd;
CNA Veneto is based in Venice-Marghera and operates 118 SME support centres in all the districts of Veneto, employing over 800 full-time staff. Veneto is well known for its capacity of transforming from one of the poorest regions in Italy (back in the Sixties) into the most dynamic and fast growing region in the Nineties. Today Veneto is a world leader for the manufacture of fashion clothes, footwear, wood-furniture, plastic products and agricultural equipment, as well as a national leader for agri-food, light mechanics, white goods and some construction materials.&#xd;
This impressive growth has been driven by the SME sector, and CNA Veneto – during over 50 years – has&#xd;
played a major role in this process of regional development. &#xd;
Being a member of the National Council of Economy and Labour, CNA takes active part in policy-making and is a counterpart of the Italian and Regional Governments for the design and implementation of relevant legislation for SME development, regulations and support measures.&#xd;
As a social partner, CNA is also regularly involved in the social dialogue mechanisms and labour market instruments. It is one of the major implementing agencies for pro-active employment measures and – on its own – has been promoting a number of enterprise and employment generation programmes in the less developed regions of Italy.&#xd;
Thanks to our geographical position in the North-East of Italy, we have always been oriented towards a close working collaboration with Central and Eastern Europe. In many countries of the region we have established daughter companies since 1988, which currently deliver a wide range of advisory services under the brand names of Euro-In Consulting (management consulting, privatisation services, credit advice and marketing), Euro-In Training (training courses, vocational education, human resources development) and Euro-In &amp; Partners (audit, accounting, tax and law advise).</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>sub-national</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Development</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Enterprise</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Information Society</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Regional Policy</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Research and Technology</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Trade</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>Transport</name></interest></interests><networking>CNA Veneto appartiene, a livello nazionale, alla CNA - Confederazione Nazionale Artigianato e delle Piccole e medie Imprese (www.cna.it) che a sua volta fa parte di UEAPME - UNIONE EUROPEA DELL’ ARTIGIANATO E DELLE PICCOLE E MEDIE IMPRESE (www.ueapme.com)</networking><financialData><startDate>2010-01-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</startDate><endDate>2011-01-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</endDate><eurSourcesProcurement>0.0</eurSourcesProcurement><eurSourcesGrants>50000.0</eurSourcesGrants><financialInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FinancialDataTradeAssociation"><cost xsi:type="CostRange" currency="â¬"><range><min>100000.0</min><max>150000.0</max></range></cost></financialInformation></financialData><activities>Imprese che operano nell'Artigianato, Trasportatori, Costruttori, Moda, Comunicazione e Terziario Avanzato, Installazione ed impianti, Produzione, Benessere e SAnità, Alimentare</activities><codeOfConduct>European Commission's code of conduct for interest representative</codeOfConduct><members>5.0</members><infoMembers></infoMembers></interestRepresentativeNew><interestRepresentativeNew><detailPageUrl ns2:href="@tr-public.home@/consultation/displaylobbyist.do?id=872332582-69&amp;locale=en" ns2:title="Display lobbyist details"/><identificationCode>872332582-69</identificationCode><status>active</status><registrationDate>2008-06-26T17:04:50.514+02:00</registrationDate><lastUpdateDate>2012-05-31T15:38:01.407+02:00</lastUpdateDate><name><originalName>Bernardi Eugenio</originalName></name><acronym>EB</acronym><legalStatus>Ditta individuale</legalStatus><webSiteURL ns2:href="http://www.bernardieugenio.com"/><category><mainCategory>I - Professional consultancies/law firms/self-employed consultants</mainCategory><subCategory>Self-employed consultants</subCategory></category><head><title>Mr</title><firstName>EUGENIO</firstName><lastName>BERNARDI</lastName><position>Consulente Tecnico - Giuridico</position></head><legal><title>Mr</title><firstName>EUGENIO</firstName><lastName>BERNARDI</lastName><position>Consulente Tecnico - Giuridico</position></legal><contactDetails><street>PROVINCIALE</street><number>34</number><postCode>43018</postCode><town>SISSA</town><country>ITALY</country><phone><indicPhone>39</indicPhone><phoneNumber>0521879651</phoneNumber></phone><fax><indicFax>39</indicFax><fax>0521879193</fax></fax><moreContactDetails>BERNARDI EUGENIO &#xd;

ENGSO exists to be a proactive front runner in the sports political field, a strong networking organization for sport in Europe, providing a platform for exchanging knowledge and information and a counterpart for European governmental institutions dealing directly or indirectly with sport like the EU or the Council of Europe. ENGSO is today the only European sports organisation having been granted consultative status by the Council of Europe.&#xd;
&#xd;
ENGSO represents 40 national sport umbrella federations of Europe, which form the so called “organised sport” sector.&#xd;
On the one hand, ENGSO cooperates with various stakeholders and decision-makers at European level to actively participate in the EU-policy- and -decision-making process.  On the other hand, ENGSO provides a platform for exchanging knowledge and information for its members as well as shaping European policies.&#xd;
&#xd;
Thus, ENGSO represents the largest voluntary non-governmental organisational activity throughout Europe with more volunteers and participants than any other activity. About 1/3 of the EU-population is organized in a sport club and about 60 % practice sport on a regular basis.&#xd;
&#xd;
The main objectives of ENGSO are as follow: &#xd;
&#xd;
• to promote and to defend the independence and autonomy of sports in Europe; &#xd;
•	to meet the political and economical impact of EU on sport in Europe; &#xd;
• to assist in improving sports development - from children and youth sport, over “sport for all” activities to elite sports – in the member countries. &#xd;
• to take active part in development of the East-West and North-South co-operation and to bring peoples together; &#xd;
• to raise the status and credibility of sports in the member countries, as well as actively combat the negative tendencies in sports; &#xd;
• to support voluntarism (active citizenship) as an important factor for development in society; &#xd;
• to develop democracy in sports; &#xd;
• to promote equality between men and women in sports; &#xd;
• to build bridges between different organisations dealing with “sport for all” activities.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Agriculture and Rural Development</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Audiovisual and Media</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Budget</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Competition</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Consumer Affairs</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Culture</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Development</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>Economic and Financial Affairs</name></interest><interest index="9"><name>Education</name></interest><interest index="10"><name>Employment and Social Affairs</name></interest><interest index="11"><name>Enlargement</name></interest><interest index="12"><name>Enterprise</name></interest><interest index="13"><name>Environment</name></interest><interest index="14"><name>External Relations</name></interest><interest index="15"><name>Food Safety</name></interest><interest index="16"><name>Home Affairs</name></interest><interest index="17"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="18"><name>Justice and Fundamental Rights</name></interest><interest index="19"><name>Public Health</name></interest><interest index="20"><name>Regional Policy</name></interest><interest index="21"><name>Sport</name></interest><interest index="22"><name>Taxation</name></interest><interest index="23"><name>Youth</name></interest></interests><structure xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="StructureNGO"><numberOfNaturalPersons>39</numberOfNaturalPersons><organisations/><countries><countryOfMembers index="1"><country>ALBANIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="2"><country>ANDORRA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="3"><country>AUSTRIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="4"><country>BELARUS</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="5"><country>BELGIUM</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="6"><country>BOSNIA-HERZEGOVINA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="7"><country>BULGARIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="8"><country>CROATIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="9"><country>CYPRUS</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="10"><country>CZECH REPUBLIC</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="11"><country>DENMARK</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="12"><country>ESTONIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="13"><country>FAROE ISLANDS</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="14"><country>FINLAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="15"><country>FRANCE</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="16"><country>GEORGIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="17"><country>GERMANY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="18"><country>GREENLAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="19"><country>HUNGARY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="20"><country>ICELAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="21"><country>IRELAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="22"><country>ISRAEL</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="23"><country>ITALY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="24"><country>LATVIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="25"><country>LITUANIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="26"><country>LUXEMBOURG</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="27"><country>MACEDONIA, FORMER YUGOSLAV REPUBLIC OF</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="28"><country>MALTA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="29"><country>NETHERLANDS</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="30"><country>NORWAY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="31"><country>POLAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="32"><country>PORTUGAL</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="33"><country>ROMANIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="34"><country>RUSSIA, FEDERATION OF</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="35"><country>SERBIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="36"><country>SLOVAKIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="37"><country>SLOVENIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="38"><country>SPAIN</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="39"><country>SWEDEN</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="40"><country>TURKEY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="41"><country>UNITED KINGDOM</country></countryOfMembers></countries></structure><networking>- Partner of the EOC EU Office&#xd;

Toda su legislación se basa, en una serie de leyes sólo y exclusivamente adaptadas a los farmacéuticos con farmacia. Estas leyes (tanto nacionales como autonómicas) apoyan un sistema gremial y obsoleto que debería estar en total desacuerdo en un país democrático que asienta su economía en el libre mercado y que ha de preservar la igualdad de derechos de todos sus ciudadanos tal y como marca nuestra Constitución donde claramente se&#xd;
vulneran algunos articulos (art. 14 de la Constitución Española), el artículo 14 de nuestra Constitución establece imperativamente, para todos, también para los farmacéuticos sin oficina de farmacia, "Los españoles son iguales ante la ley, sin que pueda prevalecer discriminación alguna por razón de nacimiento, raza, sexo, religión, opinión o cualquier otra condición o circunstancia personal o social". Respecto a Europa, esta ha demostrado en un&#xd;
dictamen motivado que ha enviado al Reino de España, donde en virtud de su art. 226, parrafo primero, debido a determinadas restricciones en materia de establecimiento de farmacias, ha instado al reino de España a adoptar las&#xd;
medidas adecuadas en el plazo de dos meses, desde la fecha de su publicación, para atenerse a dicho dictamen. En dicha carta la Comisión hace constar que varias disposiciones de la normativa española plantean incompatibilidad con el&#xd;
Derecho comunitario y, en particular, con el articulo 43 del Tratado CE relativo a la libertad de establecimiento.&#xd;
&#xd;
Son sus fines:&#xd;
1º.- Promover, concienciar a la sociedad, así como sensibilizar a ésta, de la necesidad de la igualdad de derechos y deberes de todos los profesionales farmacéuticos.&#xd;
2º.- Intercambiar experiencias de trabajo y facilitar la colaboración y elaboración de programas conjuntos entre las plataformas territoriales.&#xd;
3º.- Estudiar la realidad jurídica existente y promover en consecuencia los marcos jurídicos que permitan llegar a la libre apertura de Farmacias .&#xd;
4º.- Servir de portavoz de sus planteamientos ante los foros nacionales e internacionales.&#xd;
&#xd;
5º.-Impulsar y consolidar las plataformas provinciales, autonómicas y asociaciones a todos los niveles para que se dé respuesta a las necesidades sociales que se planteen.&#xd;
6º.- Así como cualquier otra finalidad de fomento, desarrollo y fortalecimiento de la profesión farmacéutica.&#xd;
Para conseguir estos objetivos LA PLATAFORMA PARA LA LIBRE APERTURA DE FARMACIAS, promoverá y realizará todas aquellas actividades tendentes al mejor desarrollo de los mismos.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>national</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Competition</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Consumer Affairs</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Employment and Social Affairs</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Home Affairs</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Justice and Fundamental Rights</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Public Health</name></interest></interests><structure xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="StructureNGO"><numberOfNaturalPersons>160</numberOfNaturalPersons><organisations/><countries><countryOfMembers index="1"><country>SPAIN</country></countryOfMembers></countries></structure><financialData><startDate>2011-01-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</startDate><endDate>2011-12-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</endDate><financialInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FinancialDataNGO"><budget currency="â¬"><totalBudget>5000.0</totalBudget><publicFinancingGroup><totalPublicFinancing>5000.0</totalPublicFinancing><nationalSources>5000.0</nationalSources><customisedPublicSources/></publicFinancingGroup><otherSourcesGroup><customisedOther/></otherSourcesGroup></budget><directRepresentationCosts currency="â¬"><range><max>50000.0</max></range></directRepresentationCosts></financialInformation><otherFinancialInformation>PLAFARMA, ES UNA ASOCIACION SIN ANIMO DE LUCRO, NO CONTANDO CON EL APOYO ECONOMICO NI POR PARTE DE ADMINISTRACIONES PUBLICAS,NI DE LAS INSTITUCIONES PROFESIONALES COMO LOS COLEGIOS DE FARMACEUTICOS, A PESAR DE QUE LA GRAN MAYORIA DE SUS SOCIOS ESTAN COLEGIADOS  Y SU MANTENIMIENTO SE REALIZA EN BASE A UNAS APORTACIONES PERIODICAS DE SUS SOCIOS Y QUE ES DE 10 EUROS AL MES.&#xd;

&#xd;
The purpose of association is to coordinate the actions which support the tourist activities of its members; to keep them informed of any subject concerning accessible tourism in its technical, economic, social, legal and cultural aspects; and to disseminate to the wider community information concerning accessible tourism.&#xd;

&#xd;
We aim to help make European tourism destinations, products and services accessible to all. We bring together all actors and stakeholders in the tourism sector – private, public and NGOs – to share experiences, learn from each other and collaborate in joint projects and partnerships.&#xd;
&#xd;
We support tourism enterprises and public organisations by encouraging the development and spread of good policies and practices. We raise awareness, carry out research and provide expertise on accessibility issues for the tourism sector.&#xd;
&#xd;
We are a platform for all those who support accessibility in tourism, and a strong representative voice in Europe towards national institutions and organisations whose actions have a direct influence on the tourism sector.&#xd;
&#xd;
ENAT has National Coordinators in the following countries: &#xd;
Austria, Belgium (Flanders), Belgium (Wallonia), Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden. &#xd;

ENAT started as a European Network, but we welcome members from all over the world to share in our activities and collaborate with our European members. &#xd;

In 2011 ENAT signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the UN World Tourism Organisation and the Spanish Fundación ONCE to develop projects and initiaves which will support accessible tourism worldwide. &#xd;
&#xd;
We have our sights clearly set on the path ahead and on the ultimate destination: accessible tourism for all.&#xd;

&#xd;
Ihr Ziel ist, den tierärztlichen Berufsstand in Europa in all seiner Vielfalt zu vertreten. Tierärzte sollen die ihnen von der Gesellschaft übertragenen Aufgaben erfüllen können: die Sorge um Tiergesundheit, artgerechte Tierhaltung und öffentliche Gesundheit.&#xd;
&#xd;
Der bpt hat seit Januar 2008 ein eigenes Referat Europa. Der Verband ist Mitglied der European Union of Veterinary Practicioners (UEVP), dem Zusammenschluss der europäischen Praktikerverbände unter dem Dach der Federation of Veterinarians of Europe (FVE). bpt-Präsident Dr. Hans-Joachim Götz ist seit 2011 zugleich Vizepräsident der FVE.&#xd;
&#xd;
Seit Ende 2008 ist der bpt auch Mitglied der World Veterinary Association (WVA).&#xd;
&#xd;
Außerdem gehört es zum Konzept des Verbands, regelmäßig bilaterale Kontakte zu anderen tierärztlichen Organisationen aus ganz Europa zu unterhalten.&#xd;
&#xd;
Viele Themen auf der europäischen Agenda werden vom bpt bearbeitet, etwa die EU-Tiergesundheitsstrategie mit ihrer Devise "Vorbeugen ist besser als heilen". Hier interessiert derzeit vor allem die Erarbeitung eines Tiergesundheits-Rahmenrechtsakts. Die Kommission setzt dafür auf Impfung, Identifikation und Registrierung, Akkreditierung von Bildungseinrichtungen, Forschung und regelmäßige Betreuung von Nutztierbeständen. Auch die Stichworte Legehennen, Tiertransporte und Schutz von Versuchstieren gehören in diesen Zusammenhang.&#xd;
Die Tierseuchenbekämpfung in Zeiten von Blauzungenkrankheit oder Vogelgrippe, das Thema „Impfen statt Keulen“ sowie Fragen der Integration von Qualitätssicherungssystemen haben in unserem Verband ebenso ihre europäische Dimension wie die Perspektiven der Zulassung von Tierarzneimitteln oder ihrer Verfügbarkeit.&#xd;
&#xd;
Beim Thema Arzneimittel liegt das Augenmerk international wie national derzeit auf den Antibiotika-Resistenzen. Wichtigstes Signal an die Öffentlichkeit ist hier, dass Tierärzte antibiotische Substanzen verantwortungsvoll nutzen.&#xd;
Auch die tierärztliche Berufsausübung und Ausbildung hat den Verband im vergangenen Jahr weiter beschäftigt.</activities><codeOfConduct>European Commission's code of conduct for interest representative</codeOfConduct><members>2.0</members><infoMembers></infoMembers></interestRepresentativeNew><interestRepresentativeNew><detailPageUrl ns2:href="@tr-public.home@/consultation/displaylobbyist.do?id=8763303252-70&amp;locale=en" ns2:title="Display lobbyist details"/><identificationCode>8763303252-70</identificationCode><status>active</status><registrationDate>2008-07-29T09:47:18.016+02:00</registrationDate><lastUpdateDate>2012-07-09T15:33:04.885+02:00</lastUpdateDate><name><originalName>Verband der Internationalen Kraftfahrzeughersteller e.V.</originalName></name><acronym>VDIK</acronym><legalStatus>Eingetragener Verein</legalStatus><webSiteURL ns2:href="http://www.vdik.de"/><category><mainCategory>II - In-house lobbyists and trade/professional associations</mainCategory><subCategory>Trade, business &amp; professional associations</subCategory></category><head><title>Mr</title><firstName>Dr. Thomas</firstName><lastName>Almeroth</lastName><position>Geschäftsführer</position></head><legal><title>Mr</title><firstName>Dr. Thomas</firstName><lastName>Almeroth</lastName><position>Geschäftsführer</position></legal><contactDetails><street>Kirdorfer Str. 21</street><number>21</number><postCode>61350</postCode><town>Bad Homburg</town><country>GERMANY</country><phone><indicPhone>06172</indicPhone><phoneNumber>98750</phoneNumber></phone><fax/></contactDetails><goals>Dem im Jahre 1952 gegründeten Verband obliegt es, die allgemeinen ideellen und gewerblichen Interessen der deutschen Vertretungen der internationalen Kraftfahrzeugindustrie zu fördern und zu schützen.

Knowledge’. To fulfill this, it promotes learning and puts the multidisciplinary expertise of its Fellows to work for the good of Scotland and its people. Its role is to:&#xd;
&#xd;
• promote and recognise excellence in and the application of all areas of learning&#xd;
• be a source of independent and expert advice on matters affecting the well being of Scotland and its people&#xd;
• advance public discussion on matters of national and international importance&#xd;
&#xd;
The RSE’s 2007 – 2012 Strategic Framework sets six strategic&#xd;
priorities:&#xd;
• developing our partnerships and connections with others&#xd;
• providing independent advice on major issues affecting public policy&#xd;
• developing our arts and humanities activities and their interface with science&#xd;
• broadening public engagement&#xd;
• diversifying our funding sources&#xd;
&#xd;
The RSE sought to achieve these objectives through the delivery of Core Public Benefits, Fellowship, and Management&#xd;
Administration Programmes.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>sub-national</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Agriculture and Rural Development</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Budget</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Climate Action</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Culture</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Economic and Financial Affairs</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Education</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Energy</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>Environment</name></interest><interest index="9"><name>General and Institutional Affairs</name></interest><interest index="10"><name>Home Affairs</name></interest><interest index="11"><name>Information Society</name></interest><interest index="12"><name>Justice and Fundamental Rights</name></interest><interest index="13"><name>Public Health</name></interest><interest index="14"><name>Regional Policy</name></interest><interest index="15"><name>Research and Technology</name></interest></interests><structure xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="StructureNGO"><numberOfNaturalPersons>1545</numberOfNaturalPersons><numberOfOrganisations>0</numberOfOrganisations><organisations/><countries><countryOfMembers index="1"><country>AUSTRIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="2"><country>CZECH REPUBLIC</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="3"><country>DENMARK</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="4"><country>FINLAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="5"><country>FRANCE</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="6"><country>GERMANY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="7"><country>HUNGARY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="8"><country>IRELAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="9"><country>ITALY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="10"><country>NETHERLANDS</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="11"><country>POLAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="12"><country>SWEDEN</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="13"><country>UNITED KINGDOM</country></countryOfMembers></countries></structure><networking>The RSE is a member of: ALLEA; Scotland Europa</networking><financialData><startDate>2010-04-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</startDate><endDate>2011-03-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</endDate><eurSourcesGrants>27517.0</eurSourcesGrants><financialInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FinancialDataNGO"><budget currency="â¬"><totalBudget>7139517.0</totalBudget><publicFinancingGroup><totalPublicFinancing>4912335.0</totalPublicFinancing><nationalSources>592174.0</nationalSources><infranationalSources>4292644.0</infranationalSources><customisedPublicSources/></publicFinancingGroup><otherSourcesGroup><totalOtherSources>2227182.0</totalOtherSources><contributions>250588.0</contributions><customisedOther><customisedSource index="1"><name>individuals/legacies</name><amount>105377.0</amount></customisedSource><customisedSource index="2"><name>Companies</name><amount>109822.0</amount></customisedSource><customisedSource index="3"><name>Investment/dividends</name><amount>810167.0</amount></customisedSource><customisedSource index="4"><name>charitable trust</name><amount>221624.0</amount></customisedSource><customisedSource index="5"><name>rental income</name><amount>304184.0</amount></customisedSource><customisedSource index="6"><name>charitable activities</name><amount>425420.0</amount></customisedSource></customisedOther></otherSourcesGroup></budget><directRepresentationCosts currency="â¬"><range><max>50000.0</max></range></directRepresentationCosts></financialInformation></financialData><activities>The principal purpose of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, as Scotland’s national academy, is ‎to bring benefit to the wider society of which it is part, in Scotland and beyond.

The implementation of the various aspects of the new chemicals policy REACH led us to seek a close monitoring of the developments in particular for areas of direct concern to the textile and clothing industry like the biocidal products, nano-materials of flame-retardants, etc. On Resource Efficient Europe EURATEX has insisted on a roadmap which is feasible and practically rooted in a sound knowledge base and takes due consideration of the cost effectiveness of the measures. The Directive on Packaging and Packaging waste proposes among other things to clarify the packaging definition and EURATEX made strong plea to better qualify the definition cones, beams and tubes that are used as parts of the production process throughout the textile and clothing supply chain.&#xd;
External Trade. Over past years EURATEX has pioneered the early creation of a genuine Pan-Euro Mediterranean free trade area with identical origin rules protocols. In terms of preferential original rules it has submitted a detailed proposal to the principal Directorate-Generals concerned for common origin rules or T&amp;C products in the context of the Euromed Convention. In common with other major industry bodies the Commission has been urged to avoid an unbalanced outcome in the numerous Free Trade Agreements currently in negotiation and provided detailed contributions to consultations from the Commission in respect of access to raw materials, SMEs internationalisation or the new GSP system. Regulatory Dialogues with Russia. EURATEX is involved directly with the Commission in the above dialogues. &#xd;
Intellectual Property Rights. EURATEX was involved with other Stakeholders and the Commission on the debate regarding counterfeit and pirated products sold on and via internet (e-commerce). In this context EURATEX co-drafted and co-signed in May 2011 an important Memorandum of Understanding on “Counterfeiting and piracy trade on Internet”. EURATEX inter alia: was consulted on the transposition of the EC Directive on the enforcement of intellectual property rights in the Member State; supported the EU initiatives aiming at enhancing the protection of Intellectual Property rights in third countries; participated actively on the debate on the adoption of the ACTA agreement; actively contributed to the dissemination of EU sectoral guidebooks on the protection of intellectual property rights to the attention of SMEs in the textile and clothing industry, etc. &#xd;
Internal market. EURATEX contributed actively to the debate on the draft Textile fibres names regulations both at Commission and Parliament level prior adoption &#xd;
In establishing a Technology Platform at end 2004, and publishing a Strategic Research Agenda for the textile and apparel industry in June 2006, EURATEX has sought to influence the contents of annual work programmes of FP7 to provide a sufficiency of resources for projects of genuine value added to the industry. It also coordinates a small number of research projects on behalf of the institutes and companies involved. EURATEX provided detailed contributions to the Commission in respect of the future EU research and innovation policies&#xd;
On Social matters and among other things EURATEX took an active participation in the  revision of the EU Directive on Public procurement, in the regular EU Liaison Forums organised by the concerned Directorate General; worked in cooperation with the EU Commission to highlight the need for Industry SMEs to develop and maintain a certain concept of Flexicurity. EURATEX worked to follow closely the developments as far as the Skill needs in the T&amp;C industry are concerned or the launch of the EU Textile Clothing and Leather Council on Employment &amp; Competences, the first Skills Council at European level &#xd;
From a purely statistical viewpoint, EURATEX maintains regular contacts with EUROSTAT in order to ensure that any nomenclature changes do not deprive the industry of access to information in the detail that it is required.</activities><codeOfConduct>European Commission's code of conduct for interest representative</codeOfConduct><members>6.0</members><infoMembers></infoMembers></interestRepresentativeNew><interestRepresentativeNew><detailPageUrl ns2:href="@tr-public.home@/consultation/displaylobbyist.do?id=95840804-38&amp;locale=en" ns2:title="Display lobbyist details"/><identificationCode>95840804-38</identificationCode><status>active</status><registrationDate>2008-06-23T11:20:27.464+02:00</registrationDate><lastUpdateDate>2012-05-30T16:00:56.107+02:00</lastUpdateDate><name><originalName>Verband der Auslandsbanken in Deutschland e.V. / Association of Foreign Banks in Germany</originalName></name><acronym>VAB</acronym><legalStatus>eingetragener Verein (registered association)</legalStatus><webSiteURL ns2:href="http://www.vab.de"/><category><mainCategory>II - In-house lobbyists and trade/professional associations</mainCategory><subCategory>Trade, business &amp; professional associations</subCategory></category><head><title>Mr</title><firstName>Dr. Oliver</firstName><lastName>Wagner</lastName><position>Geschäftsführer</position></head><legal><title>Mr</title><firstName>Vahldiek</firstName><lastName>Wolfgang</lastName><position>Abteilungsdirektor Recht</position></legal><contactDetails><street>Savignystraße</street><number>55</number><postCode>60325</postCode><town>Frankfurt am Main</town><country>GERMANY</country><phone><indicPhone>49</indicPhone><phoneNumber>69 97 58 50 0</phoneNumber></phone><fax/></contactDetails><goals>Der Verband der Auslandsbanken in Deutschland e.V. ist die Interessenvertretung der Banken, Kapitalanlagegesellschaften, Finanzdienstleistungsinstitute und Repräsentanzen in ausländischem Mehrheitsbesitz mit Präsenz in Deutschland.&#xd;

It is known informally as 'The European Consumer Voice in Standardisation' and uses the strapline 'Raising Standards for Consumers'.&#xd;
&#xd;
Its principal aim is to promote, defend and represent the interests of consumers in the work of the three European Standards Organisations (CEN, CENELEC and ETSI) and in similar organisations whose technical standards, specifications or guidance documents may affect consumers, directly or indirectly. The European Standards Organisations are private associations and there is no fundamental reason why their standards development work should take into account the public interest. Bearing in mind the support European Standards give to the implementation of European legislation and other public polices, ANEC was established  to provide an effective and coherent representation at European level of disparate and fragmented national consumer interests.&#xd;
&#xd;
ANEC also represents the consumer interest in the drafting or revision of European legislation - especially within the context of the New Legislative Framework for products - and in the development of public policies that may make reference to standards.&#xd;
&#xd;
And ANEC also represents the consumer interest in the use of standards and in matters of conformity assessment.&#xd;
&#xd;
Each member country of the EU and EFTA (and certain other European countries) may nominate a natural person to represent the interests of national consumer organisations in his or her country in the governance of ANEC. This individual is chosen by consensus at national level. The technical work of ANEC is pursued through topic-specific Working Groups bringing together volunteers from the member countries. The day-to-day management of the association, and promotion of its activities, is pursued by the ANEC Secretariat, based in Brussels.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Audiovisual and Media</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Budget</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Climate Action</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Competition</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Consumer Affairs</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Energy</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Enlargement</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>Enterprise</name></interest><interest index="9"><name>Environment</name></interest><interest index="10"><name>Food Safety</name></interest><interest index="11"><name>General and Institutional Affairs</name></interest><interest index="12"><name>Information Society</name></interest><interest index="13"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="14"><name>Public Health</name></interest><interest index="15"><name>Research and Technology</name></interest><interest index="16"><name>Trans-European Networks</name></interest><interest index="17"><name>Transport</name></interest></interests><structure xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="StructureNGO"><numberOfNaturalPersons>26</numberOfNaturalPersons><organisations/><countries><countryOfMembers index="1"><country>AUSTRIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="2"><country>BELGIUM</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="3"><country>CROATIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="4"><country>CZECH REPUBLIC</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="5"><country>DENMARK</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="6"><country>ESTONIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="7"><country>FINLAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="8"><country>FRANCE</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="9"><country>GERMANY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="10"><country>GREECE</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="11"><country>HUNGARY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="12"><country>ICELAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="13"><country>IRELAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="14"><country>ITALY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="15"><country>LATVIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="16"><country>LITUANIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="17"><country>MACEDONIA, FORMER YUGOSLAV REPUBLIC OF</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="18"><country>NETHERLANDS</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="19"><country>NORWAY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="20"><country>POLAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="21"><country>ROMANIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="22"><country>SLOVAKIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="23"><country>SLOVENIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="24"><country>SPAIN</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="25"><country>SWEDEN</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="26"><country>SWITZERLAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="27"><country>TURKEY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="28"><country>UNITED KINGDOM</country></countryOfMembers></countries></structure><networking>CEN, the European Committee for Standardization&#xd;

Multinational, medium and small freight forwarders and Customs agents are all part of CLECAT's structures, thus making it the most representative structure of its kind. &#xd;
&#xd;
A freight forwarder is the real master of the supply and value chain. He crafts logistic solutions that satisfy both production and consumption, both supply and demand and makes sure their expectations are satisfied, ensures that goods move from the point of origin to reach their final destination at the right place, at the right time and in good shape. For this purpose, freight forwarders utilise the entire and complex logistic infrastructure with a totally unprejudiced and cost-efficient approach. Freight forwarders do not privilege any means of transport or transport infrastructure as such, although some may own a great many equipment and infrastructure. Customs agents are on the other hand the real experts of international trade and its subtleties, ensuring that our borders do not allow for fraud and infringement, in close contact with competent Authorities &#xd;
&#xd;
Our members voice the interests of more than 19.000 companies employing in excess of 1.000.000 staff. In rough figures European freight forwarders and Customs agents clear 95% of all goods in Europe and handle 65% of the cargo transported by road, 95% of the cargo transported by air and 65% of the maritime. CLECAT also plays a major role in rail and inland waterways. Intermodal transport, extensive use of IT and dedicated terminals and warehouses are the main tools our members use to address customers' requirements. CLECAT also works in close cooperation with  FIATA, the World Federation of Freight Forwarders and is the exclusive voice of our sector on European issues. &#xd;
&#xd;
CLECAT promotes the activity and defends the interests of its members in connection with a large number of institutional and non-institutional counterparts. It has a voice where a regulatory environment concerning transport formalities and transport modes is created, in the intent of securing a uniform and seamless environment, where cargo can move freely and securely for the benefit of the whole international trade, with due respect to issues such as security and environment.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Climate Action</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Competition</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Consumer Affairs</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Customs</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Economic and Financial Affairs</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Employment and Social Affairs</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Energy</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>Enterprise</name></interest><interest index="9"><name>Environment</name></interest><interest index="10"><name>Foreign and Security Policy and Defence</name></interest><interest index="11"><name>General and Institutional Affairs</name></interest><interest index="12"><name>Home Affairs</name></interest><interest index="13"><name>Information Society</name></interest><interest index="14"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="15"><name>Justice and Fundamental Rights</name></interest><interest index="16"><name>Regional Policy</name></interest><interest index="17"><name>Research and Technology</name></interest><interest index="18"><name>Taxation</name></interest><interest index="19"><name>Trade</name></interest><interest index="20"><name>Trans-European Networks</name></interest><interest index="21"><name>Transport</name></interest></interests><networking>Some EU CLECAT Members are also Members of the international level association FIATA (www.fiata.com), there is however no formal connection other than a memorandum of understanding aiming at the coordination of the respective activities.&#xd;

Fax: 32.70.428329</moreContactDetails></contactDetails><goals>The Chamber of Commerce Belgium-Luxembourg South-East Europe is an official certified, accredited multilateral Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Kingdom of Belgium and the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg in charge of Albania, Bosnia &amp; Herzegovina, Croatia, Greece, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Kosovo, and Slovenia, as well as of the regional cooperation with Bulgaria, Hungary, Moldova, Romania and Turkey. Based on this duty, the Chamber is actively engaged in different activities and projects of the economic development of South East Europe. &#xd;
&#xd;
The Chamber has been one of the inaugurating chambers of the Transnational Chamber of Commerce, the worldwide business chamber led by the World Chambers Federation.&#xd;
&#xd;
One of the prominent goals of the Chamber is, acting both on the federal levels and on those of the Regions, support of business expansion with the different countries of the South-Eastern Europe.&#xd;
&#xd;
Due to the specifics of the area that Chamber is covering, but also due to the extensive cooperation with the EU &amp; International institutions based and/or represented in Brussels, the Chamber is also active in the process of EU integration of South-East Europe. The Chamber is active in enhancing the exchange of know-how and expertise, building technical cooperation, as well as by promoting and enhancing the social capital of the South-East Europe.  Already for years, the Chamber is operating as networking catalyst bringing together public institutions, private business and non-governmental players. Consequently, the Chamber is recognized as a unique Brussels Based, Public-Private Partnership Platform for South-Eastern Europe.&#xd;
&#xd;
This quite specific operation is developed and is based on several pillars, namely on:&#xd;
Economic pillar &#xd;
&amp; &#xd;
Infrastructure - Energy pillar&#xd;
&amp;&#xd;
Social capital pillar  &#xd;
&#xd;
The EU as one of the most influential actors&#xd;
The European Union has been a force for stability and the development of political and social prosperity in Europe. Its values, norms and institutions have encouraged  people to coalesce around democratic principles, structures, relations and networks working towards the greater good. One of the key priorities in EU external relation policy is and has been to promote stability and peace in Western Balkans, where an important part of the external assistance has been used by the EU since the enlargement process started.  The former programme CARDS, (the Community assistance programme for Reconstruction, Development and Stabilisation) which started in 2000, has continued the activities already undertaken by the EU to support civil society development in Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia. In line with the aim of simplifying and co-ordinating the delivery of external assistance, the Commission's major objective in setting up an Instrument for pre-accession assistance (IPA) is to streamline all pre-accession assistance into a single framework for both candidate and potential candidate countries replacing the former PHARE, ISPA, SAPARD, CARDS programmes, and the Turkish pre-accession instrument. Assistance may finance investments, procurement contracts, and grants, including interest rate subsides, special loans, loan guarantees and financial assistance.&#xd;
•	Transition Assistance and Institution Building, &#xd;
•	Regional and Cross-Border Cooperation, &#xd;
•	Regional Development (transport, environment and economic development)&#xd;
•	Human Resources Development&#xd;
•	Rural Development&#xd;
Two first listed of five components concern all the beneficiary countries, while three other components concern directly only the candidate countries (Croatia, Turkey and Macedonia).&#xd;

&#xd;
- Demand for a competitive regulatory framework for the energy sector&#xd;
&#xd;
- Enforcement and monitoring of competitive principles in market developments&#xd;
&#xd;
- Implementation of fair and non-discriminatory conditions of competition in the organisation of network access and network usage&#xd;
&#xd;
- Creation of a transparent market and&#xd;
&#xd;
- Abolition of cross-subsidies between network and distribution departments within vertically integrated supply companies&#xd;
&#xd;
Our demands:&#xd;
&#xd;
Strict unbundling and prevention of cross-subsidies&#xd;
&#xd;
With multi-utility structures, the network revenues are still available to support distribution - neutral networks are the only way of guaranteeing genuine competition. In Germany, network operators’ neutrality is impeded by insufficient unbundling efforts. This makes it essential to promote neutrality, especially on the distribution network level.&#xd;
&#xd;
Reasonable network usage fees&#xd;
&#xd;
As a result of their natural monopoly position, networks tend to be inefficient and deal with costs uncritically. Continuous regulation is necessary to limit these tendencies and simultaneously ensure the networks' quality.&#xd;
&#xd;
Transparency in the field of natural network monopolies&#xd;
&#xd;
Transparency is indispensable in the field of natural monopolies. On account of network’s monopoly position, network information is not in need of protection. The information asymmetry, which has also been criticised by the regulator, can only be eliminated by having an extremely high degree of transparency.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="2"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Climate Action</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Competition</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Consumer Affairs</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Energy</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Trans-European Networks</name></interest></interests><networking>bne is a member of the German "Forum Netzintegration Erneuerbare Energien" initiated by the "Deutsche Umwelthilfe", Berlin.</networking><financialData><startDate>2011-01-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</startDate><endDate>2011-12-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</endDate><eurSourcesProcurement>0.0</eurSourcesProcurement><eurSourcesGrants>0.0</eurSourcesGrants><financialInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FinancialDataTradeAssociation"><cost xsi:type="CostRange" currency="â¬"><range><max>50000.0</max></range></cost></financialInformation><otherFinancialInformation>bne is a registered association (eingetragener Verein (e.V.)), financed by member-fees only.</otherFinancialInformation></financialData><codeOfConduct>European Commission's code of conduct for interest representative</codeOfConduct><members>3.0</members><infoMembers></infoMembers></interestRepresentativeNew><interestRepresentativeNew><detailPageUrl ns2:href="@tr-public.home@/consultation/displaylobbyist.do?id=7829357255-35&amp;locale=en" ns2:title="Display lobbyist details"/><identificationCode>7829357255-35</identificationCode><status>active</status><registrationDate>2008-07-29T20:21:48.808+02:00</registrationDate><lastUpdateDate>2012-07-12T11:45:31.220+02:00</lastUpdateDate><name><originalName>Hospodářská komora České republiky</originalName></name><acronym>HK ČR</acronym><legalStatus>právnická osoba, jejíž poslání je upraveno zákonem č. 301/1992 Sb.</legalStatus><webSiteURL ns2:href="http://www.komora.cz"/><category><mainCategory>II - In-house lobbyists and trade/professional associations</mainCategory><subCategory>Trade, business &amp; professional associations</subCategory></category><head><title>Mr</title><firstName>Petr</firstName><lastName>Kužel</lastName><position>prezident</position></head><legal><title>Mrs</title><firstName>Alena</firstName><lastName>Vlačihová</lastName><position>Brussels delegate</position></legal><contactDetails><street>Freyova</street><number>27/82</number><postCode>190 00</postCode><town>Praha</town><country>CZECH REPUBLIC</country><phone><indicPhone>420</indicPhone><phoneNumber>266 721 300</phoneNumber></phone><fax/><moreContactDetails>Hospodářská komora ČR je jedním ze zakladatelů bruselského střediska České podnikatelské reprezentace při EU - CEBRE (www.cebre.cz), která hájí její zájmy u evropských institucí.&#xd;

Founded in 1998, the "Royal Spas of Europe" are the first marketing co-operation of European spas jointly presenting and selling their offers. Members are traditional spas which have a rich history and tradition of royal patronage - counting kings, queens and emperors, dukes and all branches of the aristocracy among their guests and offering an infrastructure with an exceptional quality of expertise and excellence.&#xd;
&#xd;
The ESPA is in close cooperation with the International Society of Medical Hydrology and Climatology (ISMH).&#xd;
&#xd;
The ESPA is official member of the CALPYSO action group of the tourism unit of the EU.&#xd;
&#xd;
&#xd;
The two certificates EUROPESPA med and EUROPESPA wellness signify international standards of quality as defined by ESPA.&#xd;
&#xd;
Members benefits: &#xd;
&#xd;
■Commercial success thanks to high levels of quality certified by a well known association. &#xd;
&#xd;
■Marketing via the international web portal: www.europespa.eu . &#xd;
&#xd;
■Outstanding reputation in their own sector and among their main clients.   &#xd;
&#xd;
■Continuous improvement to international top quality within just a few years. &#xd;
&#xd;
■Anonymous quality checks to keep them aware of their own position against international competition. &#xd;
&#xd;
Criteria and auditing&#xd;
The some 400 audit questions for EUROPESPA med are based on 4 main sets of national and international rules on safety, hygiene and therapy infrastructure.&#xd;
For EUROPESPA wellness (safety, hygiene, wellness infrastructure and service quality), about 350 questions are examined on your premises while another 600 items regarding service quality are tested anonymously.&#xd;
At least 80% of all the criteria as well as certain basic requirements have to be met. These results are then compared to subsequent audits to ensure that continuous mprovement takes place.</networking><financialData><startDate>2010-01-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</startDate><endDate>2010-12-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</endDate><financialInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FinancialDataNGO"><budget currency="â¬"><totalBudget>125000.0</totalBudget><publicFinancingGroup><totalPublicFinancing>0.0</totalPublicFinancing><nationalSources>0.0</nationalSources><infranationalSources>0.0</infranationalSources><customisedPublicSources/></publicFinancingGroup><otherSourcesGroup><totalOtherSources>125000.0</totalOtherSources><contributions>125000.0</contributions><customisedOther/></otherSourcesGroup></budget><directRepresentationCosts currency="â¬"><range><max>50000.0</max></range></directRepresentationCosts></financialInformation></financialData><activities>In order to achieve this the European Spas Association has established the following aims:&#xd;

Sie beschäftigen insgesamt 50.000 Mitarbeiter und erwirtschaften einen Jahresumsatz von 10 Milliarden Euro. Damit ist der bvse der führende Branchendachverband der mittelständischen Entsorgungs- und Recyclingwirtschaft in Europa.&#xd;
&#xd;
Der bvse-Bundesverband Sekundärrohstoffe und Entsorgung e.V. steht für die Erhaltung der Umwelt und die Schonung von Rohstoff-Reserven. &#xd;
&#xd;
Im Abfall stecken Wertstoffe, die in erster Linie werkstofflich und erst in zweiter Linie energetisch bzw. thermisch genutzt werden müssten. Deshalb müssen nach Auffassung des bvse alle Anstrengungen dahin gehen, so effizient und nachhaltig wie möglich die Wertstoffe im Abfall der weiterverarbeitenden Industrie in Europa zur Verfügung zu stellen. Europa darf sich angesichts der immer knapper werdenden Rohstoffvorräte nicht leisten auf die Gewinnung von Sekundärrohstoffen aus Abfällen zu verzichten.&#xd;
&#xd;
Der bvse setzt sich ein für:&#xd;
 &#xd;
- die Erhaltung funktionsfähiger Stoffkreisläufe&#xd;
- die Schaffung und Beibehaltung offener Märkte&#xd;
- verlässliche Partner bei der Erfassung, Aufbereitung und Vermarktung von Sekundärrohstoffen&#xd;
- einen hohen Qualitäts- und Qualifikationsstandard in der Entsorgungsbranche&#xd;
- einen einheitlichen Gesetzesvollzug&#xd;
- harmonisierte internationale Umweltstandards&#xd;

ARCS was established in 1985 in order to allow the association to have an eligible instrument to carry out its projects of international cooperation and solidarity. In 1987, Arcs obtained the legal recognition by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, according to Law 49/1987, article 28. &#xd;
As NGO of Arci, Arcs works on behalf of and with the association it belongs to. Fundamental mission of the “mother association” Arci is to affirm and protect the process of democratic participation promoting all tendencies of civil society to form associations. The commitment to international solidarity, peace and justice is deeply engraved in the genetic patrimony of Arci and defines therefore the purposes of its NGO ARCS. &#xd;
The main fields of intervention of ARCS: any activity  which may contribute to the social, cultural, economical and democratically-oriented  development of developing countries and generally speaking of third countries, to the defense of civil, social and human rights, to the fight to social exclusion, to the prevention of conflicts and their pacific solution, to the aid of peoples in danger, to the cultural and training interchange, to the mutual acquaintance and friendship among peoples, to the youth and citizens education to peace, cohabitation and universality. &#xd;
The institutional aims of ARCS are related to the promotion and realization of programmes of exchanges, training and international cooperation in accordance with the values and principles of its mother association:&#xd;
- to realize programmes aimed at social promotion and active participation of citizens  to the creation and reinforcement of democracy in their own countries;&#xd;
- to realize sensitizing campaigns aimed at the protection and defence of human rights, with a particular care to minorities, children and women;&#xd;
- to promote projects related to institutional and capacity building and interchange activities between local communities, with a particular attention to the social and cultural sectors &#xd;
Our main activities are:&#xd;
 Information and Development Education campaigns both in Italy and in developing countries.&#xd;
 Community level training in developing countries. &#xd;
 Realization of short and medium term programmes of international cooperation, in developing countries.&#xd;
 Selection, training and employment of volunteers and professionals in developing countries in support of programmes and activities. &#xd;
 Decentralized cooperation programmes.&#xd;

ARCS has carried out international co-operation projects with funding of its own - mainly from the fund raising campaign AttivArci - of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, of International Organizations, European Union, Italian Regions and Local Bodies: the support of these last being mainly active in some areas such as the Balkans, the Palestinian Occupied Territories, Mozambique and in support of the Euro-Latin American Observatory of the Third Sector</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="2"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField><actionField index="3"><actionField>global</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Agriculture and Rural Development</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Culture</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Development</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Education</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Employment and Social Affairs</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Enlargement</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Environment</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>External Relations</name></interest><interest index="9"><name>Food Safety</name></interest><interest index="10"><name>Humanitarian Aid</name></interest><interest index="11"><name>Justice and Fundamental Rights</name></interest><interest index="12"><name>Regional Policy</name></interest><interest index="13"><name>Youth</name></interest></interests><structure xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="StructureNGO"><numberOfNaturalPersons>119</numberOfNaturalPersons><organisations/><countries><countryOfMembers index="1"><country>AFGHANISTAN</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="2"><country>BOLIVIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="3"><country>BOSNIA-HERZEGOVINA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="4"><country>BRAZIL</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="5"><country>CAMEROON</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="6"><country>COLOMBIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="7"><country>CROATIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="8"><country>CUBA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="9"><country>EGYPT</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="10"><country>HAITI</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="11"><country>ISRAEL</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="12"><country>ITALY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="13"><country>JORDAN</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="14"><country>LEBANON</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="15"><country>MOROCCO</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="16"><country>MOZAMBIQUE</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="17"><country>PALESTINIAN OCCUPIED TERRITORY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="18"><country>RUANDA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="19"><country>SERBIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="20"><country>TANZANIA, UNITED RE UBLIC OF</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="21"><country>TUNISIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="22"><country>WESTERN SAHARA</country></countryOfMembers></countries></structure><networking>ARCS is part of the following associative networks:&#xd;

ALFI’s numerous Technical Committees and Working Groups are permanently analyzing global industry developments as well as legal and regulatory changes in Luxembourg, in the EU and beyond and the threats and opportunities these may constitute for the Luxembourg fund sector.&#xd;
&#xd;
    * Shape regulation&#xd;
&#xd;
A modern and innovative legal and fiscal environment is of key importance to defend and improve the competitive position of Luxembourg as a center for the domiciliation, administration and distribution of investment funds. Its close contacts to the regulatory authority, the government and the legislative body allow ALFI to contribute to shape regulation by bringing valuable input when there is need to adapt the regulatory framework, to adopt a new European Directive or to create a specific regulatory framework for new products or services.&#xd;
&#xd;
    * Encourage professionalism, integrity and quality&#xd;
&#xd;
Investor trust is key to successfully developing the collective investment business. ALFI therefore strives to encourage professional behavior, quality products and services and integrity of all players involved by offering training courses designed for novices and experts, by developing codes of conduct, transparency and good corporate governance and by supporting efforts to fight money laundering.&#xd;
&#xd;
    *  Promote the Luxembourg investment fund industry&#xd;

In linea con quanto già affermato dall'Autorita Garante della Concorrenza italiana (Antitrust) il MNLF si propone di stabilire non un numero massimo di licenze ma un numero minimo lasciando alla libera iniziativa la possibilità di aprire nuovi esercizi. La legislazione italiana difende gli interessi di chi è già presente sul mercato non tenendo nella giusta considerazione gli interessi generali, ovvero quelli dei consumatori. In pratica tutela unicamente i livelli di reddito dei titolari di farmacia mantenendo sul territorio ingiustificate rendite di monopolio. Tale assetto legislativo è contrario anche alla tutela della sicurezza e agli interessi economici dei consumatori perchè ne impedisce la piena e totale tutela della salute. Il carattere monopolista dell'attuale legislazione italiana in tema di farmacie è comprovato da due condanne comminate dall'Antitrust all'Associazione nazionale e locale dei titolari di farmacia. Carattere monopolista che si riverbera sull'intera filiera del farmaco attraverso il controllo di una parte importante della distribuzione intermedia. Il Movimento Nazionale Liberi Farmacisti chiede l'abolizione di tali norme al fine offrire a tutti i farmacisti laureati ed abilitati la possibilità di mostrare le proprie capacità sia professionali che imprenditoriali. Questa organizzazione attraverso la F.E.F. (www.esercizifarmaceutici.it) rappresenta anche gli interessi delle parafarmacie autorizzate dal decreto Bersani.</activities><codeOfConduct>European Commission's code of conduct for interest representative</codeOfConduct><members>1.0</members><infoMembers></infoMembers></interestRepresentativeNew><interestRepresentativeNew><detailPageUrl ns2:href="@tr-public.home@/consultation/displaylobbyist.do?id=0804666277-93&amp;locale=en" ns2:title="Display lobbyist details"/><identificationCode>0804666277-93</identificationCode><status>active</status><registrationDate>2008-08-05T10:20:46.465+02:00</registrationDate><lastUpdateDate>2012-08-07T09:15:06.043+02:00</lastUpdateDate><name><originalName>Strukton Rail</originalName></name><acronym>SR</acronym><legalStatus>Besloten Vennootschap</legalStatus><webSiteURL ns2:href="http://www.struktonrail.com"/><category><mainCategory>II - In-house lobbyists and trade/professional associations</mainCategory><subCategory>Companies &amp; groups</subCategory></category><head><title>Mr</title><firstName>Aike</firstName><lastName>Schoots</lastName><position>General Director</position></head><legal><title>Mrs</title><firstName>Karin</firstName><lastName>Haaksman</lastName><position>Head of Public Affairs</position></legal><contactDetails><street>Westkanaaldijk</street><street2>3542 DA Utrecht</street2><number>02</number><postBox>1025</postBox><postCode>3600 BA</postCode><town>Maarssen</town><country>NETHERLANDS</country><phone><indicPhone>31</indicPhone><phoneNumber>302407200</phoneNumber></phone><fax/></contactDetails><goals>Strukton Rail is een fullserviceprovider van railsystemen.

- Opening up new markets for securities lending. &#xd;
- Providing information to members about securities lending market developments. &#xd;
- Developing good industry practices. &#xd;
- Enhancing the public profile of the securities lending industry. &#xd;
- Fostering good communication and cooperation with other trade associations. &#xd;

&#xd;
Les objectifs de l'UGAL consistent à ce que les réglementations de l'Union européenne incluent et contribuent à la promotion économique, politique et juridique des détaillants indépendants au moyen de leurs groupements et les autorisent à choisir librement les solutions les mieux adaptées pour faire face à la concurrence.&#xd;
&#xd;
Créée en 1963, l'Union des groupements de détaillants indépendants de l'Europe – UGAL – rassemble, au niveau européen, les principaux groupements de détaillants indépendants des secteurs alimentaire et non alimentaire.&#xd;
&#xd;
Ces groupements sont des entreprises constituées au niveau du commerce de gros par des détaillants et des artisans indépendants. Leur but est non seulement d’offrir à leurs adhérents les meilleures conditions d'achat mais aussi, par des efforts communs, de leur apporter les moyens techniques et matériels ainsi que l'ensemble des services et compétences humaines nécessaires. Ceci permet de garantir aux détaillants l'exploitation et le développement d'entreprises modernes du commerce et de la distribution face à la concurrence dans une économie de marché. &#xd;
&#xd;
Ces groupements agissent en faveur de leurs membres, à la fois pour la mise en valeur de leur patrimoine, pour la performance économique de leurs points de vente, pour leur implication et leur participation active dans la vie du groupement. Pour ce faire, ces groupements visent la performance économique du réseau, constitué de PME travaillant le plus souvent sous enseigne commune. &#xd;
&#xd;
L'UGAL représente près de 300.000 détaillants / entrepreneurs indépendants avec un chiffre d'affaires de détail supérieur à 623 milliards d'euros et plus de 540.000 points de vente. Cela représente 25 groupements et associations de groupements en Europe employant plus de 5 millions de personnes au total et avec un chiffre d'affaires de gros supérieur à 260 milliards d'euros.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="2"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Competition</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Consumer Affairs</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Economic and Financial Affairs</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Employment and Social Affairs</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Enterprise</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Environment</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Food Safety</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>General and Institutional Affairs</name></interest><interest index="9"><name>Information Society</name></interest><interest index="10"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="11"><name>Taxation</name></interest></interests><networking>L'UGAL est membre affilié d'EuroCommerce&#xd;

&#xd;
Der Dachorganisation gehören derzeit 30 nationale Steuerzahlerorganisationen an. Alle Mitgliedsorganisationen behalten ihre Eigenständigkeit.&#xd;

&#xd;
Sie möchte zu mehr Wirtschaftlichkeit im öffentlichen Sektor führen. Sie übt Einfluss auf die Gesetzgebung aus um die Steuerlast zu begrenzen. Sie versucht ungerechte Übergriffe von Steuereinziehern zu verhindern und für eine klare Information der Regierungsbesteuerung und Ausgaben zu sorgen.&#xd;
&#xd;
Die TAE ist ein Zusammenschluss von Steuerorganisationen in Europa. Ihre Ziele sind:&#xd;
&#xd;
Den Kontakt- und Informationsaustausch zwischen den verschiedenen Ländern und ihren Organisationen anzuregen.In Zusammenarbeit mit der World Taxpayers Associations ihre satzungsgemäßen Aufgaben auch international zu verfolgen.Die Steuerzahlerbewegung auf andere Länder zu übertragen.Vergleichsstudien über "öffentliche Ausgaben und Besteuerung zu erstellen.Gemeinsame Beratung von finanzpolitischen und steuerrechtlichen Grundsatz-und Einzelfragen.Gewährung gegenseitiger Hilfe, wenn diese von einer der TAE angeschlossenen Organisation erbeten wird.Forschungsprojekte über die Auswirkungen von Steuern und Staatsausgaben zu fördern.&#xd;

Its purpose is to represent the professional interests of its members. Its missions are as follows:&#xd;
•	the drafting of opinions and proposals on taxation, legislation and general or banking regulations, at both national and European or international level; &#xd;
•	monitoring developments in the economic and financial fields followed by the definition of appropriate actions if necessary; &#xd;
•	the organization of institutional actions to make the financial center better known beyond its borders by putting in place specific promotional instruments and maintaining ongoing contacts with the national and international specialized press; &#xd;
•	the negotiation of collective employment agreements applicable to the whole center; &#xd;
•	setting up training structures adapted to the needs of the banks. Since 1991, this task has been performed by The Luxembourg Institute for Training in Banking (IFBL) incorporated as a public interest establishment. &#xd;
The Association’s field of activity is very extensive and diversified, especially as Luxembourg has, over the years, become a Financial Center enjoying a global reputation.&#xd;
The ABBL also has the task of representing the banking sector – sometimes at the highest level – in a number of bodies forming part of the Luxembourg economic and social fabric.&#xd;
Since 1960 it has been a member of the European Banking Federation (EBF). In that capacity, it is present in the management bodies and technical committees of this important Federation. In order to deal with the increasing importance of EU legislation and influence on the day to to day activities of its members, ABBL has created in 2006 the task of European Affairs Adviser in charge of relations with the EU institutions, which has been reinforced in 2011 with another EU affairs Adviser. This task is shared on a half time basis with ALFI, the Association of the Luxembourg Fund Industry.

Primarily the Council makes competitive, political and strategic researches and geopolitical analyses. It organizes conferences and seminars as well as holding lectures on the questions of foreign and security policy. It also undertakes the preparation of risk analyses and the handling of the business risks revealed. The Council follows with attention and annually rewards with a diploma of honor the Hungarian and foreign journalists on regional foreign policy. In addition, it has strong transatlantic connections, and, as a policy, does not lobby in the interests of any one of its individual members nor does it seek out or accept government subsidies. This independent and neutral position is a vital foundation for the Council's lobbying activities within the European Parliament. &#xd;
&#xd;
As allied member of the Global Financial Integrity's Task Force the Council promotes national and multilateral policies, safeguards, and agreements aimed at curtailing the cross-border flow of illegal money.

&#xd;
represents the interests&#xd;
&#xd;
of the trade fair industry on a national and international level in dealings with parliament, ministries, authorities and other organizations.&#xd;
&#xd;
informs exhibitors and visitors&#xd;
&#xd;
about dates, product ranges, exhibitor and visitor figures of German and foreign events by internet, printed media and individual information. As a complement to this, it publishes specialist brochures for the preparation and staging of trade fair participations.&#xd;
&#xd;
supports the international marketing of the German organizers&#xd;
&#xd;
A series of posters and advertisements, the "Messen made in Germany" folder and a video film, provide information worldwide about the specific qualities of German trade fairs and organizers. In addition, AUMA organizes and supports seminars and presentations for opinion-makers, especially in countries outside Europe.&#xd;
&#xd;
conducts marketing pro trade fair&#xd;
&#xd;
through the outdoor advertising campaign "Your success is only fair", through the AUMA_Trade Fair Benefits Check for the determination of costs and benefits of trade fair participations and through the CD-ROM "Messe fit" with tips for planning and conduct of trade fair participations. The basis for marketing pro trade fair are, among others, research projects on the position of the trade fair in the marketing mix.&#xd;
&#xd;
is involved in training and further education&#xd;
&#xd;
AUMA supports universities and technical colleges as well as other facilities which are concerned with training and further education for the trade fair industry. It has itself played a part in the development of the training and further training course of study "International Event Organiser" and was involved in the conception of the job description "Event Manager".&#xd;
&#xd;
maintains the German Trade Fair Library&#xd;
&#xd;
The library consists of a large collection of books, scientific papers, newspaper articles, trade fair catalogues and historic publications. It is open to students and graduates studying for their doctorate, as well as to anyone who is professionally involved with trade fairs, for their researches.&#xd;
&#xd;
improves the transparency of the trade fair market&#xd;
&#xd;
As a neutral clearing body, it is involved in balancing the various interests of exhibitors, visitors and organizers with respect to the location, date or product range of trade fairs. In addition, AUMA ensures clarity and truth in relation to event descriptions.&#xd;
&#xd;
is responsible for the management of FKM&#xd;
&#xd;
The FKM - Society for the Voluntary Control of Trade Fair and Exhibition Statistics - has developed uniform rules for the collection and publication of exhibitor and visitor figures and for the conducting of visitor analyses with the aim of ensuring the comparability of trade fair figures. Adherence to the regulations is controlled by a company of public accountants.&#xd;
&#xd;
coordinates the German participations at foreign fairs&#xd;
&#xd;
AUMA, in close cooperation with the Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology and also the Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Consumer Protection, prepares the official German trade fair programme abroad. Within the framework of this programme, the Federal Government provides export platforms where German companies can participate at foreign events, but also supports separate presentations by German industry abroad. The interests of business and politics in this sector are coordinated within the Working group for Foreign Trade Fair Participation at AUMA, in which representatives of export-oriented associations regularly meet the representatives of the Ministries.&#xd;
&#xd;
AUMA's members are&#xd;
&#xd;
    * the central associations of German business (industry, trade, skilled trades etc.),&#xd;
    * trade associations of the exhibiting and visiting industries who are interested in trade fairs,&#xd;
    * the German trade fair and exhibition organizers as well as the companies organizing foreign trade fair participations,&#xd;

Er vertritt in Deutschland die gemeinsamen Interessen von über einer Million Freiberufler mit über 3,1 Millionen Angestellten und 125 Tausend Auszubildenden. 1949 gegründet, gehören dem BFB heute 52 Organisationen sowie 16 Landesverbände an. Die Berufsfachorganisationen stammen aus den Bereichen:&#xd;
&#xd;
- heilkundliche Berufe&#xd;
- rechts-, steuer- und wirtschaftsberatende Berufe&#xd;
- technisch-naturwissenschaftliche Berufe&#xd;
- pädagogische, psychologische und übersetzende Berufe&#xd;
- publizistische und künstlerische Berufe&#xd;
&#xd;
Die einzelnen Berufsgruppen sind in Selbstverwaltungskörperschaften und Verbänden zusammengeschlossen.&#xd;
&#xd;
Organe des Bundesverbandes der Freien Berufe sind:&#xd;
&#xd;
a) das Präsidium&#xd;
&#xd;
b) die Mitgliederversammlung&#xd;
&#xd;
Der Präsident und die drei geschäftsführenden Vizepräsidenten des Bundesverbandes der Freien Berufe sind Vorstand im Sinne des § 26 BGB. Der Präsident ist alleinvertretungsberechtigt, im Übrigen sind je zwei geschäftsführende Vizepräsidenten gemeinsam vertretungsberechtigt.&#xd;
&#xd;
Der BFB unterhält Geschäftsstellen in Berlin und Brüssel.&#xd;
&#xd;
&#xd;
AUFGABEN:&#xd;
&#xd;
Als Spitzenverband der freiberuflichen Kammern und Verbände hat der BFB u.a. folgende Aufgaben:&#xd;
&#xd;
- gegenüber Bund, Ländern und der Öffentlichkeit die Interessen der Freien Berufe zu vertreten und die Freien Berufe zu fördern&#xd;
- die ethischen und ökonomischen Grundlagen der freien Berufsausübung zu sichern&#xd;
- eine qualifizierte Aus-, Weiter- und Fortbildung in den Freien Berufen zu fördern&#xd;
- den Einfluss der Freien Berufe in Staat und Gesellschaft zu stärken&#xd;
- die Beziehungen der Freien Berufe untereinander zu pflegen&#xd;
&#xd;
Grundsätzlich tritt der BFB für das Existenzrecht der Freien Berufe in unserer Arbeitgeber-Arbeitnehmer-Gesellschaft und für die Freiheit der Berufsausübung ein. Der Verband kämpft für eine maßvolle, vereinfachte und international wettbewerbsfähige steuerliche Behandlung. Er streitet aber auch in anderen wichtigen Politikfeldern wie Sozialpolitik, Umweltschutz und Bildung für die Belange der Freiberufler. Im Interesse der Verbraucher sieht der Verband den Schutz der Berufsbezeichnung aller Gruppen der Freien Berufe als notwendig an.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>sub-national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="2"><actionField>national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="3"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Audiovisual and Media</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Competition</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Consumer Affairs</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Culture</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Economic and Financial Affairs</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Education</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Employment and Social Affairs</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>Enlargement</name></interest><interest index="9"><name>Enterprise</name></interest><interest index="10"><name>General and Institutional Affairs</name></interest><interest index="11"><name>Home Affairs</name></interest><interest index="12"><name>Information Society</name></interest><interest index="13"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="14"><name>Justice and Fundamental Rights</name></interest><interest index="15"><name>Public Health</name></interest><interest index="16"><name>Research and Technology</name></interest></interests><financialData><startDate>2011-01-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</startDate><endDate>2011-12-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</endDate><eurSourcesProcurement>0.0</eurSourcesProcurement><eurSourcesGrants>0.0</eurSourcesGrants><financialInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FinancialDataTradeAssociation"><cost xsi:type="AbsoluteCost" currency="â¬"><absoluteAmount>120000.0</absoluteAmount></cost></financialInformation><otherFinancialInformation>Die Arbeit des Bundesverbandes der Freien Berufe finanziert sich aus den Beiträgen ihrer Berufsfachorganisationen. </otherFinancialInformation></financialData><activities>Das BFB Büro Brüssel wacht über die gemeinsamen politischen Interessen seiner 68 Mitgliedsorganisationen als Dachorganisation auf EU-Ebene und steht als Ansprechpartner für Informations- und Sachkentnissübermittlung den EU-Institutionen zur Verfügung.</activities><codeOfConduct>European Commission's code of conduct for interest representative</codeOfConduct><members>10.0</members><infoMembers>insgesamt 10 Festangestellte im Gesamtverband, davon 2 in Brüssel</infoMembers></interestRepresentativeNew><interestRepresentativeNew><detailPageUrl ns2:href="@tr-public.home@/consultation/displaylobbyist.do?id=4713568401-18&amp;locale=en" ns2:title="Display lobbyist details"/><identificationCode>4713568401-18</identificationCode><status>active</status><registrationDate>2008-09-16T09:19:41.662+02:00</registrationDate><lastUpdateDate>2012-08-24T09:00:33.094+02:00</lastUpdateDate><name><originalName>Fédération des Experts comptables Européens</originalName></name><acronym>FEE</acronym><legalStatus>Association internationale sans but lucratif</legalStatus><webSiteURL ns2:href="http://www.fee.be"/><category><mainCategory>II - In-house lobbyists and trade/professional associations</mainCategory><subCategory>Trade, business &amp; professional associations</subCategory></category><head><title>Mr</title><firstName>Olivier</firstName><lastName>Boutellis-Taft</lastName><position>Chief Executive Officer</position></head><legal><title>Mr</title><firstName>Olivier</firstName><lastName>Boutellis-Taft</lastName><position>Chief Executive Officer</position></legal><contactDetails><street>Avenue d'Auderghem</street><number>22-28</number><postBox>8</postBox><postCode>1040</postCode><town>Bruxelles</town><country>BELGIUM</country><phone><indicPhone>32  2</indicPhone><phoneNumber>285 40 85</phoneNumber></phone><fax/></contactDetails><goals>FEE is the Fédération des Experts-comptables Européens (Federation of European Accountants).  It is an international non profit organisation based in Brussels and governed by Belgian Law (AISBL), officially recognised by a Royal Decree of the Belgian King published on 20 January, 1987.&#xd;
&#xd;
FEE represents 45 professional institutes of accountants and auditors from 33 European countries, including all of the 27 EU Member States. &#xd;
&#xd;
In representing the European accountancy profession, FEE recognises the public interest.  It has a combined membership of more than 700.000 professional accountants, working in different capacities in public practice, small and big accountancy firms, businesses of all sizes, government and education, who all contribute to a more efficient, transparent, and sustainable European economy.&#xd;
&#xd;
FEE represents the European Accountancy Profession toward the EU institutions and other international organisations. It is a Regional Organisation, member of IFAC, the International Federation of Accountants.&#xd;
&#xd;
One of FEE’s main objectives is monitoring and contributing to professional, regulatory and public policy developments relating to its field of interest and expertise.  It promotes cooperation between its Member Bodies, ensures their timely information and offers leadership in representing the profession. &#xd;
&#xd;
For the past 20 years FEE has supported progress and constant adaptation of the profession to an ever rapidly changing world, while continuously promoting the fundamental values of the profession – integrity, objectivity, independence, professionalism, competence and confidentiality. Over these years, professional accountants are proud to have contributed to making the Internal Market a reality for consumers and business, both for the listed entities and for millions of small and medium sized enterprises that professional accountants assist daily. This day to day involvement of practitioners in fieldwork also nurtures the feedback that FEE provides to European policymakers through a constructive dialogue, thus contributing to making policies more efficient and practicable. FEE will continue to represent professional accountants  from all European countries, all sectors and all firms, and help them cooperate, reflect and innovate to fulfil market needs and serve the public interest.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField><actionField index="2"><actionField>global</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Economic and Financial Affairs</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Enterprise</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Environment</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>General and Institutional Affairs</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Information Society</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Taxation</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>Trade</name></interest></interests><networking>FEE does not per se belong to any association but has relevant relationships with the following organisations:&#xd;

The explicit and main purpose of groups that join the Network must be to empower people and groups experiencing poverty and social exclusion to fulfil their responsibilities, to exercise their rights, to break their isolation and counter their social exclusion. &#xd;
&#xd;
The Network shall pursue three main objectives:&#xd;
	To promote and enhance the effectiveness of actions against poverty and social exclusion; &#xd;
	To help shape social policies and design action programmes &#xd;
	To lobby for and with people and groups experiencing poverty and social exclusion. &#xd;
&#xd;
While EAPN is committed to the eradication of poverty globally the primary focus of our activities is on the eradication of poverty within the member states of the European Union. &#xd;
&#xd;
EAPN is committed to transparency about EU interest representation.  EAPN believes that this register fails basic transparency standards and that it does not provide EU lobbying transparency.  When registering, we have therefore chosen to give all the relevant information that we consider necessary for lobbying transparency. A credible EU lobbying transparency register should include names of individual lobbyists and the issues that they try to influence, provide precise and comparable financial information on lobbying, ad have effective sanctions to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the information disclosed. IN an effort to arrive at a more objective way of calculating lobbying expenditures, we follow the guidelines that result from consultation with public interest organisations, professionals working on lobbying transparency as well as experts on US lobby disclosure legislation. Our registration is therefore providing a more comprehensive calculation of our expenses for activities that aim to influence the policy formulation and decision-making processes of the European institutions, and a list of those who, on behalf of EAPN, carry out such activities.&#xd;
&#xd;
Our registration is based on the guidelines for transparent registration developed by the Civil Society Contact Group and ALTER-EU.  You can find the guidelines on “http://www.act4europe.org or http://www.alter-eu.org”&#xd;
&#xd;
EAPN as an “interest representative” of people experiencing poverty and social exclusion and the organisations who defend their interests or in which they participate. In that respect in EAPN we try to engage citizens and civil society organisations in discussing European policies and strategies and to make proposals based on their experience and knowledge.  This is part of a general effort to help to ensure a closer link between citizens and political decision making, to try to have the ‘voice’ of people experiencing poverty heard in this decision making and to try to build links between the local, regional, national and EU and international levels.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>sub-national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="2"><actionField>national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="3"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Budget</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Competition</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Culture</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Economic and Financial Affairs</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Employment and Social Affairs</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Information Society</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>Justice and Fundamental Rights</name></interest><interest index="9"><name>Regional Policy</name></interest><interest index="10"><name>Taxation</name></interest></interests><structure xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="StructureNGO"><numberOfNaturalPersons>0</numberOfNaturalPersons><numberOfOrganisations>51</numberOfOrganisations><organisations><organisation index="1"><name>EAPN Belgium -

Following the guidelines of the EU Civil Society Contact Group and Alter EU, EAPN has calculated that it has spent  an estimated 299049 Euro in 2008 on activities carried out with the objective of influencing the policy formulation and decision making processes of the European Union Institutions.  This figure is arrived at by calculating 50% of the staff costs for staff who work on policy, plus 50% of meetings organised where an element of such meetings included trying to influence policy.  Please note that in addition to the above EAPN was contracted on a non profit basis by the Slovenian Presidency of the EU to organise the  7th European Meeting of People experiencing poverty. Also please note that the aim of the work of EAPN is to help to reduce the gap between people experiencing poverty, the organisation which represents their interests and in which they participate and the European Union decision making processes. In order to achieve this bottom up participation we develop participatory structures including statutory bodies,  working groups and the organisation of seminars and workshops in which  a large number of participants from the diverse corners of Europe participate.    </otherFinancialInformation></financialData><activities>On behalf of EAPN the people listed below have had during the reporting period four or more contacts with members of officials of the EU Institutions with the objective of influencing the policy making and decision making process of the European Union institutions, or they have spent 20% or more of their working time on behalf of EAPN carrying out such activities.

Primero - Facilitar información y orientación a las personas que sufran síntomas de la Enfermedad de Alzheimer o que deseen una asistencia preventiva de la misma, así como a los familiares y allegados de las mismas; proporcionar y procurar asistencia sanitaria y técnica a las personas que se encuentren afectadas por la llamada Enfermedad de Alzheimer y otras demencias, bien en centros y establecimientos de la propia Fundación, bien mediante conciertos y acuerdos con Centros hospitalarios institucionales o centros privados.&#xd;
&#xd;
Segundo - Promover la investigación y el estudio de la llamada Enfermedad de Alzheimer y en particular, de la patología del cerebro relativa al deterioro de las neuronas o células del sistema nervioso, al objeto de conseguir avances. Realizar toda clase de actividades que tengan como fin el desarrollo de la terapéutica de los procesos patológicos de las células del cerebro.&#xd;
Para el alcance y logro de estos objetivos, la FUNDACIÓN ALZHEIMER ASTURIAS, podrá realizar, entre otras, las siguientes actividades:&#xd;
&#xd;
a) - Ayudar a las familias a soportar el impacto psicológico y moral que supone la Enfermedad de Alzheimer y otras demencias y tratar de orientar hacia una atención integral del Enfermo y su entorno familiar. Informar y sensibilizar a la sociedad.&#xd;
b) - Asesorar e informar en cuestiones médicas, psicológicas, legales, económicas o de asistencia social relacionadas con la Enfermedad de Alzheimer y otras demencias, tratando de promocionar la necesidad de un diagnostico correcto para mejorar la detección y tratamiento precoz de la Enfermedad. Difundir los conocimientos que se vayan alcanzando entre los profesionales de la salud, las familias y el público en general.&#xd;
c) - Proporcionar a los medios de comunicación para su difusión, todo lo que haga referencia al posible diagnostico de esta enfermedad y terapia de la misma, al objeto de facilitar la asistencia adecuada.&#xd;
d) - Facilitar la asistencia a los enfermos para mejorar su calidad de vida al máximo posible. Intervenir de forma directa y/o indirecta con los Enfermos de Alzheimer y/o Demencia, mediante técnicas psicoterapéuticas, fisioterapéuticas u otras terapias multidisciplinares, para tratar de ralentizar el proceso de deterioro y conseguir ofrecer una atención integral, que junto a otras situaciones que crean dependencia, hagan posible el retraso en el desarrollo de la incapacidad.&#xd;
e) - Alentar y fomentar los estudios sobre la incidencia, evolución terapéutica y posible etiología de la Enfermedad. Fomentar y estimular la investigación fundamental, clínica y científica, puesto que la causa y tratamiento de la Enfermedad de Alzheimer, permanecen, hasta ahora, desconocidos; tratando de mejorar el conocimiento de la Enfermedad en sus aspectos biológicos, clínicos y psicosociales.&#xd;
f) - Mantener los contactos necesarios con entidades y asociaciones dedicadas al estudio de la enfermedad dentro y fuera de España, con el propósito de estar al día en los avances científicos que se produzcan en esta materia y así poder informar a los familiares de los enfermos.&#xd;
g) - Conseguir el apoyo de las Administraciones (Estatales, Autonómicas, Locales, etc.), de las organizaciones filantrópicas, de los medios de comunicación y de las personas, para subsanar las carencias actuales, fomentando el desarrollo de los recursos que se precisen y facilitar el acceso a los recursos sanitarios y sociales existentes, evitando cualquier tipo de discriminación, posibilitando que la Atención Primaria sea el centro y el eje fundamental de la atención y coordinación.&#xd;
h) – Se potenciará que la Fundación pueda ser un mediador y/o interlocutor  válido entre el colectivo que representa y las distintas autoridades, instituciones públicas y/o privadas y otros estamentos y sectores de la sociedad en general.&#xd;

It works as the representative of family forestry in Europe, by promoting the values of private property ownership and sustainable forest management.&#xd;
 &#xd;
CEPF's mission is to assist and strengthen an economically viable, socially beneficial, culturally valuable and ecologically responsible sustainable management of private forests. CEPF serves the interests of the approximately 16 million forest owners. They are private individuals and families who take care of more than half of the forest area of the European Union. &#xd;
 &#xd;
These forests pass from one generation to the next through inheritance. The forests are not only inherited from our parents, they are on loan from our children.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Agriculture and Rural Development</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Energy</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Environment</name></interest></interests><financialData><startDate>2012-01-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</startDate><endDate>2012-12-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</endDate><eurSourcesProcurement>0.0</eurSourcesProcurement><eurSourcesGrants>0.0</eurSourcesGrants><financialInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FinancialDataTradeAssociation"><cost xsi:type="CostRange" currency="â¬"><range><min>350000.0</min><max>400000.0</max></range></cost></financialInformation></financialData><activities>The CEPF activities aim at fostering reliable political framework conditions and strengthening national forest owners’ organizations capacities in order to maintain and enhance an economically viable, socially beneficial, culturally valuable and ecologically responsible sustainable forest management.&#xd;
 &#xd;
The individual forest owners are part of social networks from semi-rural to remote rural areas to which Community policies may be not easily communicated. CEPF acts on emerging issues, making expert and constructive contributions on behalf of the forest owners. In this sense, CEPF has a bridge building role, enabling family forest owners from the local level to voice their concerns and transfer their knowledge to be available at the European level.&#xd;
 &#xd;
CEPF represents the interests of these forest owners through active participation in, monitoring of and working with the institutions of the European Union and other international initiatives.&#xd;
&#xd;
CEPF has a active role in the EU Advisory Group on Forestry and Cork. The Advisory Group includes representatives of European forest owner organisations (public and private), forest-based industries, environmental NGOs, forest trade unions, traders and consumer groups. It has 49 members, off which CEPF holds 9 seats.&#xd;
&#xd;
CEPF has an observer status in leading processes and organizations which shape forestry and forest policy in Europe and worldwide.&#xd;

&#xd;
CEPMC is a European confederation of national "umbrella" organisations. &#xd;
A typical CEPMC Member federates a large number of national associations, which, together, cover all kinds of construction materials and building products, be they mineral, wood, plastic or metal-based. Founded in 1988, CEPMC is constituted as an AISBL, a non-profit making organisation under Belgian law.&#xd;
&#xd;
CEPMC represents the interests of its Members at a European level and deals primarily with horizontal issues. These will vary but currently include the implementation of the Construction Products Directive, fire protection in construction, the environment and raw materials. It provides contact for its Members with European governmental institutions as well as with other construction industry associations: architects, contractors, developers, etc. It also liaises with European construction materials sectorial organisations, the majority of which have joined CEPMC as Associate Members.&#xd;
&#xd;
CEPMC monitors European legislative, administrative and economic measures affecting the construction materials and building products industry, and ensures, whenever possible, that the industry's interests are taken into account. To achieve this, CEPMC strives to obtain from its Members consensual industry views on important pan-European issues.</networking><financialData><startDate>2012-01-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</startDate><endDate>2012-12-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</endDate><eurSourcesProcurement>0.0</eurSourcesProcurement><eurSourcesGrants>0.0</eurSourcesGrants><financialInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FinancialDataTradeAssociation"><cost xsi:type="CostRange" currency="â¬"><range><min>100000.0</min><max>150000.0</max></range></cost></financialInformation></financialData><activities>Representation of the European panel and profile industry at the European Commission on the basis of the European Construction Products Directive.

&#xd;
Regional Advisory Councils were first proposed during the review of the Common Fisheries Policy in 2002 as a method of ensuring greater stakeholder involvement in the policy making processes of fisheries management. &#xd;
&#xd;
The principal aim of the NWWRAC is to bring together stakeholders from across Europe to advise the Commission (whether by own initiative proposals or as a result of open public consultations) on matters of fisheries management in respect of the North Western Waters - ICES areas Vb (EC waters), VI, VII.&#xd;
&#xd;
NWWRAC members are composed of fishing industry, other fishing interests (processors, auctions, consumers...)and other groups of interest representatives such as environmental NGOs or anglers. Representatives of National Administrations and relevant technical and scientific experts often participate in NWWRAC meetings and discussions as active observers.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Environment</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Fisheries and Aquaculture</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Food Safety</name></interest></interests><structure xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="StructureNGO"><numberOfNaturalPersons>60</numberOfNaturalPersons><numberOfOrganisations>0</numberOfOrganisations><organisations/><countries><countryOfMembers index="1"><country>BELGIUM</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="2"><country>FRANCE</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="3"><country>IRELAND</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="4"><country>NETHERLANDS</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="5"><country>SPAIN</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="6"><country>UNITED KINGDOM</country></countryOfMembers></countries></structure><financialData><startDate>2010-10-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</startDate><endDate>2011-07-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</endDate><eurSourcesGrants>250000.0</eurSourcesGrants><financialInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FinancialDataNGO"><budget currency="â¬"><totalBudget>328210.0</totalBudget><publicFinancingGroup><totalPublicFinancing>276400.0</totalPublicFinancing><nationalSources>26400.0</nationalSources><customisedPublicSources/></publicFinancingGroup><otherSourcesGroup><totalOtherSources>51810.0</totalOtherSources><donation>0.0</donation><contributions>51810.0</contributions><customisedOther/></otherSourcesGroup></budget><directRepresentationCosts currency="â¬"><range><min>300000.0</min><max>350000.0</max></range></directRepresentationCosts></financialInformation></financialData><activities>The NWWRAC Annual reports and work programmes are available for consultation in the publications section of the NWWRAC website.</activities><codeOfConduct>European Commission's code of conduct for interest representative</codeOfConduct><members>3.0</members><infoMembers></infoMembers></interestRepresentativeNew><interestRepresentativeNew><detailPageUrl ns2:href="@tr-public.home@/consultation/displaylobbyist.do?id=8934001343-93&amp;locale=en" ns2:title="Display lobbyist details"/><identificationCode>8934001343-93</identificationCode><status>active</status><registrationDate>2008-08-28T11:04:22.249+02:00</registrationDate><lastUpdateDate>2012-08-03T12:08:11.345+02:00</lastUpdateDate><name><originalName>Scottish Fishermen's Federation</originalName></name><acronym>SFF</acronym><legalStatus>Trade Association</legalStatus><webSiteURL ns2:href="http://www.sff.co.uk"/><category><mainCategory>II - In-house lobbyists and trade/professional associations</mainCategory><subCategory>Trade, business &amp; professional associations</subCategory></category><head><title>Mr</title><firstName>Bertie</firstName><lastName>Armstrong</lastName><position>Chief Executive</position></head><legal><title>Mr</title><firstName>Bertie</firstName><lastName>Armstrong</lastName><position>Chief Executive</position></legal><contactDetails><street>Rubislaw Terrace</street><number>24</number><postCode>AB10 1XE</postCode><town>Aberdeen</town><country>UNITED KINGDOM</country><phone><indicPhone>01224</indicPhone><phoneNumber>646944</phoneNumber></phone><fax/></contactDetails><goals>SFF represents the interests of Scottish Fishers and the Scottish Catching Sector at Scottish, UK and EU Parliaments.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>sub-national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="2"><actionField>national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="3"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Fisheries and Aquaculture</name></interest></interests><networking>Europeche&#xd;

Some of the individuals (including EACT Directors) leading for us on specific topics are:&#xd;
- EU affairs: Olivier Brissaud&#xd;
- Regulation of derivatives and the impact of Basel III: Richard Raeburn&#xd;

• Contact with EU Institutions: we commit significant time and resources to improved and regular contacts with the key European institutions and supervisory bodies such as the European Commission, the European Parliament, the European Central Bank, ESMA and the European Payments Council.&#xd;
&#xd;
• Regulation of Derivatives: the EACT has played a leading role in seeking to influence the shape of the regulation of derivatives proposed in 2009 both by the EU and the USA, in the aftermath of the G20 commitment to reform the financial sector. We have acted as a catalyst for the views of the corporate sector in Europe, ensuring that through formal response to public consultations and informal contact with EU organisations proper account is taken of the likely regulatory impact on non-financial end users of derivatives.&#xd;
&#xd;
• Implementation of SEPA: we have contributed both at European level - participating in stakeholders’ meetings, SEPA progress reviews, consultations and expert groups of the EC, European Parliament, ECB and EPC, in working groups with the EPC for Direct Debits and Remittance Information - and at national level, with many associations that are members of the EACT involved in their national SEPA Migration Committees. A particular focus continues to be on the ability of users as SEPA stakeholders to improve the governance of the implementation programme. The Chairman of the EACT is a member of the SEPA Council (established by the European Central Bank and the European Commission), representing both the EACT and Business Europe.&#xd;
&#xd;
• International Accounting Standards: we continue to have extensive involvement with discussion of IFRS 7 and 9 as well as IAS 32 and 39; the EACT continues to encourage standards that impose fewer constraints on economically prudent corporate financial risk management policies and has consistently argued for simplified hedge accounting. Some of our members are part of the Financial Instruments Working Group (FIWG). &#xd;
&#xd;
• Credit Ratings: the EACT made an early and key contribution to improving the perception of credit ratings agencies by helping to develop a ‘Code of Standard Practices for Participants in the Credit Rating Process’, the content of which was later reflected in the work of the global regulatory organisation, IOSCO. We continue to monitor EU level debate on the credit ratings sector and contribute to formal consultations on this. &#xd;
&#xd;
• Funding Survey: we have for several years since the 2008 financial crisis run an annual survey looking at the funding conditions treasurers are experiencing across Europe and how these are changing. This work builds on a survey initiative originally undertaken by the AFTE. &#xd;
&#xd;
• MiFID: we contributed to the drafting of MiFID and to its implementation. EACT members monitor transposition into national laws, seeking to ensure that there is no lessening of the duty of information for professional clients.</activities><codeOfConduct>European Commission's code of conduct for interest representative</codeOfConduct><members>3.0</members><infoMembers></infoMembers></interestRepresentativeNew><interestRepresentativeNew><detailPageUrl ns2:href="@tr-public.home@/consultation/displaylobbyist.do?id=4479912317-33&amp;locale=en" ns2:title="Display lobbyist details"/><identificationCode>4479912317-33</identificationCode><status>active</status><registrationDate>2008-08-20T18:09:03.386+02:00</registrationDate><lastUpdateDate>2012-07-24T16:43:41.592+02:00</lastUpdateDate><name><originalName>Association Française des Trésoriers d'Entreprise</originalName></name><acronym>AFTE</acronym><legalStatus>Association</legalStatus><webSiteURL ns2:href="http://www.afte.com"/><category><mainCategory>II - In-house lobbyists and trade/professional associations</mainCategory><subCategory>Trade, business &amp; professional associations</subCategory></category><head><title>Mr</title><firstName>Philippe</firstName><lastName>MESSAGER</lastName><position>Président</position></head><legal><title>Mr</title><firstName>Richard</firstName><lastName>CORDERO</lastName><position>Délégué général</position></legal><contactDetails><street>rue d'ATHENES</street><number>20</number><postCode>75442</postCode><town>PARIS Cedex 09</town><country>FRANCE</country><phone><indicPhone>33</indicPhone><phoneNumber>142815398</phoneNumber></phone><fax><indicFax>33</indicFax><fax>142801890</fax></fax></contactDetails><goals>L’Association Française des Trésoriers d’Entreprise – AFTE – créée en 1976 compte environ 1400 adhérents.

We do research on lobbying, PR campaigns and think tanks and inform the public how they influence politics and media and where that becomes problematic. We also campaign for more transparency and a legal, institutional and societal framework that limits the improper influence of lobbyists on both politics and the public at large. LobbyControl was founded in 2005.&#xd;
&#xd;
LobbyControl is committed to transparency about EU interest representation. LobbyControl believes that this register fails basic transparency standards and that it does not provide EU lobbying transparency. When registering, we have therefore chosen to give all relevant information that we consider necessary for lobbying transparency. A credible EU lobbying transparency register should include names of individual lobbyists and the issues that they try to influence, provide precise and comparable financial information on lobbying, and have effective sanctions to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the information disclosed. In an effort to arrive at a more objective way of calculating lobbying expenditures, we follow guidelines that result from consultations with public interest organisations, professionals working on lobby transparency as well as experts of US lobby disclosure legislation. Our registration is therefore providing a more comprehensive calculation of our expenses for activities that aim to influence the policy formulation and decision-making processes of the European institutions, and a list of those who, on behalf of LobbyControl, carry out such activities.&#xd;
&#xd;

&#xd;
Overall we believe that this register is seriously flawed and inadequate as a tool to provide EU lobbying transparency. This register should quickly be replaced by one that ensures real transparency. LobbyControl calls for mandatory registration of all lobbyists targeting EU institutions. A credible EU lobbying transparency register should include names of individual lobbyists and provide precise and comparable financial information on lobbying.&#xd;

&#xd;
On the EU level we especially lobby for more lobby transparency – that means especially improving this weak register to include names and meaningful financial information (narrow the ranges to 10.000 € and ensure that the information asked for from different types of interest representatives will be comparable and on the same level).&#xd;
&#xd;
We also campaign for cooling-off periods before EU officials can work as lobbyists, for stricter rules against conflicts of interests (for example for the special advisors of the European Commission) and for an end of privileged access for certain special interests.</activities><codeOfConduct>European Commission's code of conduct for interest representative</codeOfConduct><members>2.0</members><infoMembers>On behalf of LobbyControl the persons listed below have had, during the reporting period, four or more contacts with members or officials of the EU institutions with the objective of influencing the policy formulation and decision-making processes of the European institutions; or they have spent 20 percent or more of their working time on behalf of LobbyControl carrying out such activities:&#xd;

Er blickt auf die Tradition des von 1901 bis 1945 bestehenden Centralverbandes des deutschen Bank- und Bankiergewerbes zurück. Im März 1999 hat er seinen Sitz von Köln nach Berlin verlegt. Er repräsentiert mehr als 210 private Banken und elf Mitgliedsverbände. Die dem Verband angeschlossenen Institute stehen miteinander in intensivem Wettbewerb. Die Bandbreite reicht von großen bis kleinen, von weltweit operierenden bis regionalen, von universell tätigen bis auf einzelne Geschäftsbereiche spezialisierte Banken. &#xd;
&#xd;
Information der Mitglieder &#xd;
Der Bankenverband unterrichtet seine Mitglieder über aktuelle politische und wirtschaftliche Entwicklungen, von denen die Kreditwirtschaft betroffen ist. Diese Aufgabe gewinnt aufgrund der wachsenden Zahl von europäischen Richtlinien, nationalen Gesetzen und Gesetzesänderungen sowie Verordnungen ständig an Bedeutung.&#xd;
&#xd;
Ansprechpartner der Politik &#xd;
Ansprechpartner für Parlament, Ministerien und Behörden in allen kreditwirtschaftlichen Fragestellungen zu sein ist ein weiterer wichtiger Bestandteil der Verbandsarbeit. Politiker und Beamte greifen für die sachgerechte Beurteilung kreditwirtschaftlicher Fragen regelmäßig auf das Expertenwissen des Bankenverbandes zurück.&#xd;
&#xd;
Zusammenarbeit mit Verbänden &#xd;
Die Deutsche Kreditwirtschaft, in dem die fünf kreditwirtschaftlichen Spitzenverbände vertreten sind, wichtige verbandsübergreifende Themen, behandelt in bankrechtlichen, bankpolitischen und bankpraktischen Fragen. Dazu gehört insbesondere das Aufsichts-, Wertpapier- und Steuerrecht. Zudem erarbeitet Die Deutsche Kreditwirtschaft standardisierte Regelungen im Zahlungsverkehr einschließlich der Kartenzahlungssysteme. Zur Unterstützung des europäischen Einigungsprozesses und zur Wahrung ihrer Interessen in Brüssel haben sich die nationalen Verbände der privaten Banken in der European Banking Federation zusammengeschlossen. Anstehende Entscheidungen der Europäischen Kommission werden hier bereits im Vorfeld auf Verbandsebene erörtert, um die Auffassung der Banken dann den zuständigen europäischen Institutionen zur Kenntnis zu bringen.&#xd;
 &#xd;
Brüsseler Büro&#xd;
Seit 2004 ist der Bankenverband durch eine Repräsentanz in Brüssel vertreten. Damit trägt er der hohen Intensität und Geschwindigkeit Rechnung, mit der bank- und finanzmarktbezogene Regulierungsvorhaben der Europäischen Union zur Integration der europäischen Finanzdienstleistungsmärkte behandelt werden. Das Brüsseler Büro dient dem Bankenverband zur schnellen und effizienten Zusammenarbeit mit den europäischen Institutionen. &#xd;
&#xd;
Information der Öffentlichkeit &#xd;
Die Information der Öffentlichkeit über die Aufgaben und Tätigkeiten der privaten Banken bildet einen weiteren Schwerpunkt der Arbeit des Bankenverbandes. Es gilt, Informationslücken zu schließen, Missverständnisse auszuräumen und den vertrauensvollen Umgang miteinander zu fördern. &#xd;
&#xd;
Ombudsverfahren &#xd;
Als erster Verband der Kreditwirtschaft hat der Bankenverband einen unabhängigen Schlichter berufen. Er geht den Beschwerden von Privatkunden nach und versucht, schnelle und unbürokratische Lösungen zu finden. Vorteil für den Kunden: Das Verfahren ist für ihn kostenlos. Jeder Privatkunde einer privaten Bank kann sich mit einem formlosen Schreiben an die Kundenbeschwerdestelle richten.&#xd;
&#xd;
Einlagensicherung &#xd;
Der Bundesverband deutscher Banken ist Träger des Einlagensicherungsfonds, der den Kunden der angeschlossenen privaten Banken einen praktisch vollen Einlagenschutz bietet. Der Einlagensicherungsfonds trägt – als freiwillige Sicherungseinrichtung – wesentlich zur Stabilität des deutschen Finanzsektors bei und ist, was den Sicherungsumfang angeht, im Vergleich mit dem Ausland ohne Beispiel. Darüber hinaus nimmt die Entschädigungseinrichtung deutscher Banken GmbH, eine Tochter des Bankenverbandes,die Aufgaben einer gesetzlichen Entschädigungseinrichtung wahr.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>sub-national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="2"><actionField>national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="3"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField><actionField index="4"><actionField>global</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Budget</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Competition</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Consumer Affairs</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Economic and Financial Affairs</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Education</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Employment and Social Affairs</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Enterprise</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>External Relations</name></interest><interest index="9"><name>General and Institutional Affairs</name></interest><interest index="10"><name>Home Affairs</name></interest><interest index="11"><name>Information Society</name></interest><interest index="12"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="13"><name>Justice and Fundamental Rights</name></interest><interest index="14"><name>Regional Policy</name></interest><interest index="15"><name>Taxation</name></interest><interest index="16"><name>Trade</name></interest><interest index="17"><name>Youth</name></interest></interests><networking>Der Bankenverband ist Mitglied: &#xd;

Im Laufe der Jahre ist sie zu einem der größten christlichen Kinderhilfswerke in Europa gewachsen. Heute fördert und erreicht die Kindernothilfe rund 779.540 Mädchen und Jungen in 983 Projekten in 30 Ländern in Afrika, Asien, Lateinamerika und Osteuropa &#xd;
&#xd;
Ziel der Förderung ist, dass Kinder aus den ärmsten Schichten der Bevölkerung eine Chance auf ein besseres Leben bekommen. Die Kindernothilfe stärkt durch Patenschaften und Programme junge Menschen in ihren Rechten und darin, für ihre Rechte einzutreten. Gemeinsam mit ihren Partnern weltweit sieht sie in dem UN-Übereinkommen über die Rechte des Kindes den gemeinsamen Auftrag, Armut zu bekämpfen, Kinder zu schützen, zu fördern und zu beteiligen.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>national</actionField></actionField><actionField index="2"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField><actionField index="3"><actionField>global</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Climate Action</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Development</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Education</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>External Relations</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Humanitarian Aid</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Youth</name></interest></interests><structure xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="StructureNGO"><numberOfNaturalPersons>255</numberOfNaturalPersons><organisations/><countries><countryOfMembers index="1"><country>AUSTRIA</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="2"><country>GERMANY</country></countryOfMembers><countryOfMembers index="3"><country>LUXEMBOURG</country></countryOfMembers></countries></structure><networking>VENRO (Verein Entwicklungspolitik deutscher Nichtregierungsorganisationen)&#xd;

Introduction&#xd;
&#xd;
The Council of Bars and Law Societies of Europe (CCBE) is the representative organisation  of more than 700,000 European lawyers through its member bars and law societies from 31 full member countries, and 10 further observer countries.&#xd;
&#xd;
The CCBE was founded in 1960, as the ramifications of the European Economic Community on the legal profession started to be seriously considered (see the CCBE's History). During the decades which followed and through to the present day, the CCBE has been in the forefront of advancing the views of European lawyers and defending the legal principles upon which democracy and the rule of law are based. The CCBE is an international non-profit-making association incorporated in Belgium. &#xd;
&#xd;
The CCBE is recognised as the voice of the European legal profession by the national bars and law societies on the one hand, and by the EU institutions on the other. It acts as the liaison between the EU and Europe's national bars and law societies. The CCBE has regular institutional contacts with those European Commission officials, and members and staff of the European Parliament, who deal with issues affecting the legal profession. &#xd;
&#xd;
In addition, the CCBE works closely with legal organisations outside Europe.&#xd;
&#xd;
&#xd;
II.	Objectives:&#xd;
&#xd;
A non-profit making organisation, the CCBE represents European bars and law societies in their common dealings before European and other international institutions.&#xd;
A particular feature of the CCBE's work is its focus on European cross-border matters as they affect lawyers. The CCBE was closely consulted by the European Commission in relation to the promulgation of a series of European directives, which regulate the way that lawyers can practise in other Member States, either by way of temporary services, establishment or re-qualification. &#xd;
Among the most important of the CCBE's missions are the defence of the rule of law, human rights and democratic values. Of special concern are the rights of access to justice, and the protection of the client by ensuring respect for the core values of the profession. &#xd;
There are many other issues which affect lawyers at the European level: the impact of competition law on the profession's core values; the relationship between the duties of lawyers (and through them, the rights of citizens) and the duties of governments to provide security for citizens; the impact of globalisation and market liberalisation on the legal profession. All these matters form part of the central, day-to-day work of the CCBE. &#xd;
The CCBE also represents its members in their dealings with other lawyers' organisations around the world on issues of common interest to the legal profession, such as the fight against terrorism and other serious crime, and the ability of lawyers globally to practise their profession freely without harassment or hindrance.</goals><actionFields><actionField index="1"><actionField>european</actionField></actionField></actionFields><interests><interest index="1"><name>Audiovisual and Media</name></interest><interest index="2"><name>Competition</name></interest><interest index="3"><name>Consumer Affairs</name></interest><interest index="4"><name>Economic and Financial Affairs</name></interest><interest index="5"><name>Education</name></interest><interest index="6"><name>Employment and Social Affairs</name></interest><interest index="7"><name>Enlargement</name></interest><interest index="8"><name>Enterprise</name></interest><interest index="9"><name>External Relations</name></interest><interest index="10"><name>General and Institutional Affairs</name></interest><interest index="11"><name>Home Affairs</name></interest><interest index="12"><name>Information Society</name></interest><interest index="13"><name>Internal Market</name></interest><interest index="14"><name>Justice and Fundamental Rights</name></interest><interest index="15"><name>Research and Technology</name></interest><interest index="16"><name>Taxation</name></interest><interest index="17"><name>Trade</name></interest><interest index="18"><name>Trans-European Networks</name></interest></interests><financialData><startDate>2011-01-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</startDate><endDate>2011-12-01T00:00:00.000+02:00</endDate><eurSourcesProcurement>98516.0</eurSourcesProcurement><eurSourcesGrants>167195.0</eurSourcesGrants><financialInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FinancialDataTradeAssociation"><cost xsi:type="CostRange" currency="â¬"><range><min>100000.0</min><max>150000.0</max></range></cost></financialInformation><otherFinancialInformation>Global income for 2011: 1 226 754 euros€&#xd;
