The European Parliament does most of its work in
Brussels, but we are obliged by the EU Treaties to meet in Strasbourg
twelve times per year. The Strasbourg plenary sessions, each of four
days duration, are marked in red
on the calendar. The parliament also
has six īmini-plenariesī in Brussels. These are also coloured red, and
each extends one and a half days. The blue
indicates political group meeting days, and
the pink denotes Committee
meetings, all held in Brussels. The seven turquoise coloured
blocks are external meeting weeks,
either devoted to constituency work in Scotland or occasionally for
fact-finding visits by Committees.
