MEP Johan Van Overtveldt, Chair of the European Parliament Budget Committee, met members of the Chamber in the aftermath of the European and Belgian elections on the 9th of June.
The influential MEP and former Belgian Minister of Finance discussed how Europe will fund its priorities over the next five years, touching on competitiveness, research and innovation, industry, trade, defence and economic growth.
Furthermore, Mr Van Overtveldt explained how the Letta and Draghi reports will contribute to thinking on the way the EU realises its ambitions.
We thank the MEP for coming and look forward to observing his contributions to the next legislative cycle.
