3 March 1997

The final vote of the European Parliament on the multi-directive will take place
in Strasbourg on 9 April about about 12 Noon.  A pre-vote debate will take place
on the 7th or 8th.  

Motorcyclists wishing to attend this session should send their name, address,
tel/fax/email numbers to FEM.  FFMC and ANDDB France hope to arrange some
sleeping space, so we need to know how many riders are coming.  There may also
be a demo.  The youth hostels are all booked even now, and hotel space is also
in short supply during the Parliamentary session weeks.  Therefore please give
this your urgent attention.  It will not be necessary to stay on Wednesday
evening.

National riders' rights organisations if possible please send at least one
representative who is experienced in dealing with politicians, particularly if
they have met MEPs previously.

We need this information for those who are coming:
Name, tel/fax/email number, method of travel, day/time of arrival, whether hotel
or cheaper accomodation is required.

The final outcome of the multi-directive conciliation is not acceptable to any
FEM members, and about half are asking their MEPs to vote against the
conciliation text.  If you have not written to your MEP about this in the last
few weeks, PLEASE DO SO IMMEDIATELY.  If you need details of your MEP(s), or an
idea of what to write about, please email me or see the FEM home page.  

It should be possible for everyone to enter the Parliament on these days to
personally speak with MEPs, and to watch & listen to the debate and vote.  

See you in Strasbourg.

Simon Milward
General Secretary
