Britain asks EU parliaments for anti-terror support
Britain is organising a series of talks with members of the European Union’s national parliaments this week to ensure broad support for a proposed package of anti-terrorism laws.
Up to 150 national deputies – six from each of the 25 EU member states – will meet with EU officials, including Home Secretary Charles Clarke and EU Justice Commissioner Franco Frattini, today and tomorrow to discuss the package drafted by EU governments last week.
