The Group of the European Liberal Democrat and Reform Party ((フランス語:Groupe du parti européen des libéraux, démocrates et réformateurs), ELDR〔http://www.europarl.europa.eu/election/results/legende.htm〕) was a liberal political group in the European Parliament between 1976 and 2004. The group comprised the European Liberal Democrat and Reform Party and its constituent national-level parties. Its predecessors have existed since 23 June 1953, then under the name of ''Liberals and Allies Group''. In 1976, the name was changed to ''Liberal and Democratic Group'' (LD), and on 13 December 1985 to ''Liberal and Democratic Reformist Group'' (LDR). The addition of "Reformist" was a concession to the Social Democratic Party of Portugal, which did not identify itself as a liberal party. The ELDR group partnered with the European People's Party – European Democrats (EPP-ED) to form the majority-forming coalition for the 5th Parliament, during which time it elected its sole President of the European Parliament, Pat Cox during the second half of the term.〔http://personal.lse.ac.uk/hix/working_papers/kreppel-hix-cps-2003.pdf〕 The group was replaced following the 2004 European elections by the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe (ALDE) group. ==Chairmen== * 1979-1984: Martin Bangemann, Germany (FDP) * 1984-1989: Simone Veil, France (UDF) * 1989-1991: Valéry Giscard d'Estaing, France (UDF-PR) * 1992-1994: Yves Galland, France (UDF-Rad) * 1994-1998: Gijs de Vries, Netherlands (VVD) * 1998-2002: Pat Cox, Ireland (independent) * 2001-2004: Graham Watson, United Kingdom (Lib Dem) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「European Liberal Democrat and Reform Party (European Parliament group)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
