Its the Legal Affairs Committee of the EP which is considering the amendments and the rapporteur is Giorgios Anastassopoulos. I presume, but don't know, that he is a Greek :-) Anyway, the amendment won't be voted in the Legal Affairs Committee until 14/15 April, so there is a bit of time to lobby MEPs if you want. Having talked to the people concerned here, I gather the DTI won't be supporting that particular EP amendment once it gets to the Council and we don't think the European Commission will either. We have already lobbied the UK members of the EP Committee. Anyone know any Greek companies or academics who could have a word with Mr A? David Hendon
