Biography

Hartog was born and raised in Utrecht.[1][2] He studied economics at Erasmus University Rotterdam from 1980 to 1985 and political science at the College of Europe from 1986 to 1987. From 1989 to 1 June 2023, he worked as a civil servant at the European Commission. Since 1 June 2023, he has worked as an independent mediator under the business name Eddy Hartog Consultancy.[1]

Hartog was placed second on Volt's list of candidates for the 2023 Senate election. Due to Debora Fernald, member of the South Holland States Provincial for GroenLinks, casting a protest vote for Volt,[3] the party received an additional seat, which meant Hartog joined lead candidate Gaby Perin-Gopie in the Senate.[4] Since 13 June 2023, he has been a member of the Senate on behalf of Volt Netherlands.[1]

He is a member of the Senate committees on Foreign Affairs, Defence and Development Cooperation, European Affairs, Finance, Infrastructure, Water Management and Environment, Justice and Security, Knowledge and Kingdom Relations,[5] Hartog also serves as a substitute member of the Dutch delegation to the Benelux Interparliamentary Assembly.[6]
