Parliament’s press services

The European Parliament’s press service provides journalists with accurate and unbiased information on parliamentary activities and offers practical and technical assistance. Our press officers are available to brief media professionals on specific files on Parliament’s legislative agenda and inform them about the audiovisual offer at their disposal.

Press Officers draft and disseminate alerts and press releases on debates and votes, organise press conferences, interactive webinars and seminars, and brief journalists.

Press briefings, press releases and alerts can be found online in the Press room section of the Parliament’s webpage. Follow the latest news on @EuroparlPress or subscribe to receive press releases and media alerts via email.
