Group stages meeting on Iceland EU membership agreement

The group Já til að sjá will hold a public meeting at Tónabíó on Skipholt at 5pm, mbl.is reports.

The organisation says it is important that Icelanders have the opportunity to learn what an agreement on membership of the European Union would entail before a final decision is made.

The speakers will be Halldór Emil Unnarsson, a primary school student and chairman of NFG; Margrét Kristmannsdóttir, managing director of PFAFF; Hjálmar Gíslason, managing director of GRID; Ingibjörg Rósa Björnsdóttir, a freelance text editor; and Jónas Hagan, chairman of the board of SJÁ.

The meeting will be chaired by Hákon Örn Helgason, a performing artist, comedian and screenwriter.

After the programme, attendees will have an opportunity to meet and talk over refreshments, according to the announcement.
