There is a number of misconception on the activity of a LOBBYIST.
A INDUSTRY or ORGANISATION has usual a office in BRUSSELS near the EU
INSTITUTIONS where a number of EXPERTS in various subject avaible are to REPRESENT
their INDUSTRY or ORGANISATION
Not mentioned in this activity are the LOBBYIST who his main purpose is to have contacts in the various EU-INSTITUTIONS and suply information and guidance for the benefit of the activity toward the MEP and toward the various services who could be involved in the subject of intrest.
He also collect information for the EXPERTS and the REPRESENTATION og the INDUSTRY or ORGANISATION.
He does also develop contact with the presse in vieuw to have the ORGANISATION make the required PRESS RELEASES toward the persons who would use them efectively
The LOBBYIST do have contact at all levels but does not defent or promote the activity he is intrested in the public arena, the work is discrete and without reely declaring the obtained postive results.
He listen to all the PRO and CONTRA concerning what has effect on his activity but do not go in reel contestation with the CONTRA he try to inform them and change their vieuws without any publicity on the obtaind succes
He always try to avoid to make speeces in front of a audiance this is the job for the representation of the organisation or industry
ALWAYS avaible for any aditional clarification !!
