Press Release: Transparency and Better Regulation: Commission puts online a public register of expert groups

The European Commission on 8 November 2005 launched a public register of the expert groups that help it in preparing legislative proposals and policy initiatives. The new register was to cover formal and informal advisory bodies. It was designed to provide information on the nature and tasks of each group, and to indicate which department within the European Commission is responsible for overseeing the group.
