European Law Monitor is a non-political, not-for-profit, information service that aims to provide citizens and organisations across Europe with the ability to find and track new EU proposals, and to make it easier for interested parties to express their views to European legislators during the legislative process.

Europe Direct Relay for Hampshire

European Law Monitor hosts the Europe Direct Relay for Hampshire, a drop-in information centre for local citizens to find out more about the EU, and its strategies and policies.

The Key Aims of European Law Monitor

Most ordinary people and organisations in Europe have little idea as to the extent they are governed by EU legislation. Nor do they have much understanding of the legislative process of the European Union, how EU Laws are made, where EU Directives and Regulations come from, or how they are implemented by EU member states.

Most importantly, they are unaware just how they can influence the legislative process to ensure their interests are protected. Our key aims are:

To alert consumers, NGOs, and businesses to any proposed European Union legislation that might affect their areas of interest so that they can become involved in the decision making process at an early stage.
To monitor the progress of new EU laws to allow users to follow their chosen acts, so that they are kept aware of their timetable for making any representations.
Provide help and guidance to explain the EU legislative process and the general policies of the institutions of the European Union.
To provide a resource to subscribers whereby interested parties can meet, exchange views, pool resources and cooperate in making representations to EU legislators.
