Dear Friends,

ECAS is delighted to invite you to the conference taking place on 3 November 2010 in Brussels which aims to bring together representatives of citizens’ advice organisations and other NGOs with experience in dealing, at a local level, with the problems of enforcing European free movement rights for EU citizens and members of their family.

The conference shall facilitate an informal dialogue between the two main geographical levels, namely the European and the local level and identify the problems which arise for citizens exercising free movement of people rights. The forum also seeks to build on initiatives taken by the new European Commission.

The day shall be brought to a close with a key note speech from Viviane Reding, Vice President of the European Commission responsible for justice, fundamental rights and citizenship.

Please find here programme of the Mind the Gap conference and more information. We hope this event will appeal to you and you will play an active part in it.

The conference participation is free of charge but the number of places is limited and we advise prompt registration. ECAS is not able to reimburse any travel or accommodation costs.

Yours sincerely,

Tony Venables
