EU Presidency 2013 - Main
 

Irish Presidency of the Council of the European Union

The Irish Medicines Board (IMB) is looking forward to welcoming our European colleagues from other medicines & medical device agencies and governments to the 20 meetings being hosted by the IMB under the Irish Presidency in the first six months of 2013.

In January 2013, Ireland begins its 7
th Presidency of the Council since entering the EU in 1973. The last time Ireland held the office of Presidency was in 2004.

Hosting the Presidency of the Council of the EU in 2013 holds particular significance as this will also mark the 40th anniversary of Ireland’s accession to the European Union.

REGISTER and/or see more information on each meeting.

We look forward to seeing you!
 

 
 

“The Irish EU Presidency logo takes its inspiration from Celtic spirals and knotwork. Taking the letter ‘e’ for Europe as a starting point, the spirals radiate out and are woven together to create a fluid, unified shape. Each member (or ‘e’) is linked and works in harmony with the others, reflecting our ambition to ensure the united and effective operation of the EU under our stewardship.”
