Italian term

protocollo d'appello

Italian to English Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters Politics
Firmato dal gruppo Liberaldemocratico del Parlamento europeo un protocollo d’appello ai capi di stato e ai primi ministri perché intervengano sul ddl.

Does it simply mean 'appeal'?

The Liberal Democrate European Parliamentry party has signed an appeal addressed to the EU Heads of State and the Prime Ministers to intervene on the legislation.

Is is something to do with lobbying? Maybe there's a set term for this type of action?

Many thanks, Lilly

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks very much for your input. I had to submit my translation before the responses came in and I simply used 'appeal', so I suppose I must agree with this suggestion!"

protocol calling on

they signed a protocol calling on the relevant heads of state, etc. etc.
Maybe there is a term for this, a quick look around the usual places hasn't turned one up yet for me, so perhaps this might do instead. HTH.
