|---|---|
| WHEN? | 9 October 2013 14.30-17.00 |
| WHERE? | room JDE51, Committee of the Regions |
| WHY? | Free movement across borders is at the very basis of a single market and one of the foundations of the European Union. However, practical and legal barriers to the mobility of citizens, business activities and investment still persist. The EPP Group workshop will focus on the benefits that citizens can get from the single market, including through the use of various EU programmes for investment in growth and jobs. |
