New website: A brand new website for
the European Parliament
The
European Parliament is launching a completely new website designed to
provide quicker and easier public access to information on the political
decisions taken by the elected representatives of Europe's citizens.
Replacing the old website, which was essentially a collection of
databases, the new site is a dynamic and attractive information tool
presenting continuously updated news on Parliament in a colourful,
easy-to-read format in 20 languages.
