The All-Party Parliamentary Group for European Reform (APPGER) was established in 2011. Its function was to:
- 'explore each area where EU legislation impacts on the UK and assess whether this is better dealt with at the national or European level. To work with MEPs, interest groups and other experts to explore what a new UK-EU relationship could look like and what needs to be done to get there.'
The group was however dissolved following the general election of 2015.
