Millions spent on consultancy firms and the Northern Ireland crisis

This week on EURACTIV’s Yellow Room, we are talking about how some EURACTIV digging led to discussions and examinations over the Commission’s 462 million-euro contracts with several consultancy firms. We are focusing on the Parliament’s next steps and the MEPs' actions. To break down the main components of this story we spoke with EURACTIV’s economy and jobs editor, Jorge Valero.

We are also travelling to Northern Ireland to gain a better understanding on what is happening with the new crisis in the country and what actions the EU and the UK are planning to take to maintain peace. To find out more on this issue we are joined by EURACTIV’s Paula Kenny.
