Question for written answer
to the Commission
Rule 117
Gerard Batten (EFD)

 Subject: Commission attendees at Bilderberg meeting
 Answer(s) 

Reports on the Internet state that at least three members of the Commission attended the recent Bilderberg meeting in St Moritz in June: Herman Van Rompuy, Joaquin Almunia and Neelie Kroes.

I have the following questions and requests:

1. Did the President or any member of the Commission attend the Bilderberg meeting?
2. If so, was it in an official or private capacity?
3. What costs did they incur, and who paid those costs?
4. What was the nature of their contributions to the meeting?
5. I would like a copy of the meeting agenda and any information distributed to the Commission attendees.
6. What were the action points taken from the meeting in relation to the European Union?

Please supply any additional information that may be useful to understanding the role of the President and Commissioners at the meeting.
