Artiklu - Din il-ġimgħa fil-PE
It-Tnejn, 5 ta’ Marzu 2012
Din il-ġimgħa ser tkun l-aktar iddedikata għax-xogħol tal-gruppi politiċi qabel il-plenarja ta' Marzu fi Strasburgu, għalkemm xi kumitati ser jiltaqgħu wkoll. Nhar il-Ħamis it-8 ta' Marzu ser ikun jum importanti għan-nisa, billi dan hu l-Jum Internazzjonali tan-Nisa. Il-PE ser jiċċelebra dan il-jum b'serje ta' avvenimenti li ser isiru matul il-ġimgħa.

Artiklu - Vital Moreira dwar l-ACTA "Dak li kien permess se jibqa' permess"
It-Tnejn, 5 ta’ Marzu 2012
Wara li l-ġimgħa l-oħra 22 pajjiż tal-UE kif ukoll ir-rappreżentanti tal-UE ffirmaw l-ACTA, Ftehim Kummerċjali Kontra l-Falsifikazzjoni, l-interess pubblikju issa qed jitfa' l-attenzjoni tiegħu fuq ir-rwol tal-Parlament Ewropew. Il-Parlament Ewropew ma jistax ibiddel it-test tal-ftehim, jispjega Vital Moreira, President tal-Kumitat għall-Kummerċ Internazzjonali, jista' biss ikun favur tiegħu jew kontra, ma japprovaħx jew jitlob lill-Qorti tal-Ġustizzja biex tivverifikah.

Artiklu - X'għandek tkun taf dwar l-ACTA
It-Tnejn, 5 ta’ Marzu 2012
L-ACTA, li huwa ftehim dwar il-falsifikazzjoni u l-ksur tad-dritt tal-awtur onlajn, s'issa ġie ffirmat minn 30 pajjiż fl-UE u madwar id-dinja, iżda jista' jidħol fis-seħħ biss bl-approvazzjoni tal-Parlament Ewropew. Fix-xhur li ġejjin il-Parlament se jkun jista' jiddeċiedi d-destin tal-ftehim billi jew japprovah jew jiċħdu. Iżda dwar xiex huwa dan kollu? X'għanijiet irid jikseb l-ACTA?

Artiklu - Il-kuluri tal-kalendarju: xi jfissru?
It-Tnejn, 20 ta’ Frar 2012
Daqqa roża, daqqa aħmar, daqqa blu. Il-kalendarju tal-Parlament kollu kuluri. Il-ġimgħat Parlamentarji huma organizzati skont il-kulur, u kull kulur jixhed l-attività partikolari jew metodu ta' xogħol għal dik il-ġimgħa. Per eżempju din il-ġimgħa hi waħda ħadra ċara li turi li l-MEPs ser ikunu qed jaħdmu fil-kostitwenzi tagħhom. Nagħtu ħarsa lejn xi jfissru l-kuluri fil-kalendarju.
