TAB celebrates 25 anniversary
On 2 December 2015 the famous TAB, the Office of Technology Assessment of the German Bundestag (Parliament) celebrated its 25th anniversary.
The current EPTA president, Mr. Le Déaut, member of the French Parliament, alongside a few other representatives of EPTA institutions, congratulated Mrs. Lips, the chairwoman of the TA committee of the Bundestag. One of the highlights of the event was the performance of a "virtual drummer". The picture shows approx. 200 reports from 25 years arranged on a long table in the Bundestag.
