Neil Kinnock visits SEI
Neil Kinnock, Vice-President of the European Commission, visited the Sussex European Institute (SEI) on 24 May for a discussion on European governance.
Neil Kinnock, Vice-President of the European Commission and Professor Helen Wallace, co-director of the Sussex European Institute. | The meeting came about when Professor Helen Wallace, co-director of SEI, organised a meeting last year as part of the Economic and Social Research Council's 'One Europe or Several?' programme, at which Mr Kinnock said he would be pleased to come to Sussex in future. "We've been trying to get him for a long time, so we're very pleased to have him," said Helen. Mr Kinnock met with an invited panel of academics from SEI and several other universities for an informal discussion about the context in which he is currently working to reform the Commission. |
"He thinks it's important to get a sense of what the outside world thinks about how the Commission should be rethinking itself," says Helen. "It was good that he wanted to come to Sussex, and helpful that we were able to bring into the discussion people who knew not only about institutional matters but also about economic and science and technology issues."
