First meeting of the European Parliament working group on cross-border cooperation

"The end of roaming – additional charges for telephone calls made and messages sent from abroad – is anticipated with impatience by all border residents,” declared Anne Sander, MEP and MOT vice-president, on the occasion of the launch meeting of a new parliamentary working group on border questions on 24 June at the European Parliament.

"The inhabitants of border areas are the ones who experiment day-by-day with European integration. They are also the ones who experience the limits of that integration […].” The objective of the working group is to “convey the problems of border residents from the local level to Brussels."
