The Contact Network of the Independent Regulators Group (IRG) and the European Regulators Group (ERG) met last 16-17 November in Malta, to ensure preparations for the upcoming IRG/ERG plenary session scheduled for this 7-8 December in Bratislava (Slovakia).
The main agenda points included debate on the question of future development of the IRG and ERG, seeking ways to improve and make more efficient those groups' work, and preparation of the Working Programme for 2007. The proposed working programme was subject to public consultation (the deadline to submit comments was 15 November) and the final version should be approved by the next plenary session.
