To make this site work properly, we
sometimes place small data files called cookies on your device. Most big
websites do this too.
What are cookies?
A
cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or
mobile device when you visit the site. It enables the website to
remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font
size and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t
have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or
browse from one page to another.
How do we use cookies?
A number of our pages use third-party cookies to:
- gather anonymous statistics on what pages you visited and how you got there
- provide you with embedded content, e.g. YouTube videos or Flickr slideshows
- enable you to share the pages you like on your favorite social media
- remember if you have agreed (or not) to our use of cookies on this site
Enabling
these cookies is not strictly necessary for the website to work but it
will provide you with a better browsing experience. You can delete or
block these cookies, but if you do that some features of this site may
not work as intended.
Please note that, in case
you play a YouTube video on the site, you will receive a cookie from

The
cookie-related information is not used to identify you personally, and
the Committee of the Regions does not use it for any purpose other than
those described here.
Do we use other cookies?
Some
