The Cultural Deal for Europe's statement on the Election of the European Parliament’s CULT Committee Chair
IETM endorses the statement issued by The Cultural Deal for Europe partners Culture Action Europe, Europa Nostra and European Cultural Foundation on the Election of the European Parliament’s CULT Committee Chair.
The statement urges for culture to be given the highest priority by the European Union Institutions, including the European Parliament. This should be duly and strongly demonstrated with the election of an adequate pro-European Chair of the European Parliament’s Committee on Culture and Education (CULT). The statement also calls upon the European Parliament— particularly the Conference of Presidents and the future members of the CULT Committee—to ensure that the appointment of the Chair, Vice-Chairs and members of the CULT Committee is made with great care.
