Committee of the Regions (COR)

--NEW URL-- http://www.cor.europa.eu/



The Committee of the Regions (COR) is one of the youngest European institutions. It was created in 1994, as a 'consultative body' responsible for bringing a local and regional viewpoint on European Union legislation and policy. Responsibilities were initially limited to five areas: economic and social cohesion, trans-European infrastructure networks, health, education and culture; under the Treaty of Amsterdam (1999), employment policy, social policy, the environment, vocational training and transport were added as new areas for compulsory consultation. The site has a good deal of information about the COR's membership, activities, opinions and resolutions, plus a helpful section of other EU links. [GAS, 28 May 2006].
