Austria: The Austrian Bundesrat passed "Transparenzpaket" (Transparency package) on 28.06.2012, which took effect on 1 January 2013. This package comprises a series of transparency-related laws, among them the so called "LobbyG" regulating lobbying and interest representation and introducing a register. The transparency package was drafted under high political and public pressure and there was little time for expert debates.
