Over 90 participants from both the public and private sector gathered in Brussels for a full day seminar focusing on decision shaping in the EEA. In particular, the seminar shed light on how the decision making procedures of the European Union have changed over the past 15 years and how these changes affect the involvement of the EEA EFTA States.  The seminar also included a set of “best practice” examples introduced by experts from EEA EFTA States.
