EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT

 

EP’s Committees have been constituted

The newly elected European Parliament (EP) held its first session in plenary in Strasbourg. This session involved the election of the chair of the EP (Jerzy Buzek, EPP, Polish) and the announcement of who will be in which parliamentary committee. Spanish MEP Fernando Lopez Aguilar (S&D, the former PSE), who, as a candidate, told the HUMA network that he, if elected, “would be willing to stand up for all those living in Europe to receive equal access to healthcare, including undocumented migrants”, was elected as chair of the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (LIBE), and German MEP Jo Leinen (also S&D) as chair of the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety Committee (ENVI).
