First ever EU wide deliberative poll
May:

The European Think Tank NOTRE EUROPE is - with support from the European Commission and others - preparing the first ever deliberative poll with citizens from all 27 member states of the EU.

It is planned to take place in October. And its results can become very useful in the run-up to the European Council in December, where a new European Constitution / Treaty probably will be agreed.

October:

The event took place as planned and ended today ( October 14 ) with 400 active participants in the European Parliament in Brussels.

The results of the poll will be published on Wednesday, October 17, at a press conference in Lisbon.

You can follow it all on the abovementioned website.
