Welcome from the Chair

As the Chair of the D-ME Delegation, I Co-Chair the EU-Montenegro Stabilisation and Association Parliamentary Committee (SAPC) with my Montenegrin counterpart, President of the Parliament Mr Ivan Brajović.

The SAPC meets twice a year for two days, but the EP Delegation's work goes beyond these bi-annual meetings. We are actively engaged in preparing meetings and addressing topics that are important for both Montenegro and the European Union.

Our work covers all aspects of Montenegro's accession to the Union. In particular, we focus on the functioning of the country's democratic institutions, on the fight against organised crime and corruption, on social policies and the protection of environment.

We seek to help Montenegro to prepare for EU membership, while aiming to work together for a rapid roadmap for accession. We pay special attention to rule of law in the country and discuss the issue with our partners in the Skupština Crne Gore
.

I look forward to leading our Delegation through Montenegro's pre-accession period, as well as developing the parliamentary aspects of the process.

David MARTIN, MEP
