UKREP GUIDE
FOREWORD
olding the EU Presidency from July until the end of
December 2005 is an honour and a challenge for the
staff of this mission and our colleagues back in
London and overseas. The role of Presidency is a collective
endeavour: it is about building consensus rather than winning
arguments.
H
I hope you will find this short guide to the staff and tasks of
the United Kingdom Permanent Representation to the
European Union useful. My colleagues and I are here to help
you – I hope this booklet will save you time in identifying the
right person to deal with your enquiry.
We aim to do our best in the coming six months: to do this
we’ll need your help.
We look forward to working with you.
Permanent Representative
to the European Union
