The ninth edition of the book entitled
Procedure and practice of the Assembly was
published in 1990. Since then, significant
political changes in Europe have also had
an impact on the functioning of the
Parliamentary Assembly. This new edition
emphasises the practical way in which
the Assembly operates and describes its
political and institutional context. It will
be of use both to the members of the
Assembly and a wider audience: members and staff of national
parliaments, representatives of civil society, and all those who wish
to know more about the driving force of the Council of Europe.
The 636 parliamentarians making up the Assembly come from the
national parliaments of the 47 Council of Europe member states.
They meet four times a year to discuss current affairs and ask
European governments to take initiatives and report back. These
parliamentarians speak on behalf of the 800 million Europeans
who elected them. They are the democratic conscience of Europe.
