2. Aim of the meeting:-
To exchange and share the information about the practical implementation of
Regulation 1408/71/EC in some Member States
We would like to gain the overview of the practices in other Member States,
especially those we mostly communicate with because of the handling E - forms.
We expect that the understanding of the other systems will help to implement the
regulation properly and will enhance the cooperation between the liaison bodies and
thus it will help to provide the job seekers with the correct information about their
duties and rights.
