NEW TRANSPARENCY RULES IN THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT
Submitted by christian on Wed, 12/14/2016 - 13:10
The Members of the European Parliament voted on 13 December to change their rules of procedure in an effort to make the parliamentary activity more efficient, but also more transparent (the Corbett report). However, the report was fiercely disputed and in some cases some MEPs opposed making the decisions more open to the public. Among the topics voted upon were the second jobs of the MEPs and regulating the meetings with lobbyists.
