Organizations representing EU citizens in the UK and British citizens in the EU will participate in the hearing on Tuesday, 8 October, to discuss Brexit developments.

Hearing participants

Dimitri Scarlato, representative of 'the3million', an organization for EU27 citizens in the UK.

Jane Golding, Representative of 'British in Europe', a coalition representing British citizens living and working in Europe.

Emma DeSouza, human rights campaigner on citizenship.

After the end of the hearing, Chairman Antonio Tajani (pictured) and the civil society representatives will be available to make statements to the media.

Hearing details

The hearing will take place between 14h30 and 17h30 on Tuesday 8 October at the European Parliament in Brussels, Paul-Henri Spaak building, room 4B001.

Background notes

As Parliament reiterated in its latest resolution on 18 September, the protection of citizens’ rights remains a key priority for MEPs. Following the decision of the 10 April 2019 European Council Special Summit to accept the UK government’s request to prolong the Article 50 deadline, the UK is set to leave the EU by 31 October.
