Seminaarit

Politiikkayksiköt järjestävät seminaareja, joissa jäsenet voivat esittää asiantuntijoille kysymyksiä ja keskustella heidän kanssaan parlamentin toimintaan liittyvistä tai ajankohtaisista aiheista. Seminaarit eivät välttämättä ole julkisia, mutta niitä voidaan järjestää valiokunnan kokouksen aikana.
