The European Conservative Group was a Conservative political group with seats in the European Parliament between 1973 and 1979.

History

On 1 January 1973 the Community enlarged for the first time to include Denmark, Ireland and the United Kingdom. The British Conservative and Danish Conservative parties formed their own group called the European Conservative Group on 16 January 1973.

In the ensuing years, the group collected additional right-of-centre members, and on 17 July 1979 it changed its name to the "European Democratic Group".
