lpv:translated text	"I want to thank the Council of Ministers for this answer. It is, in fact, a most excellent initiative by the Finnish Presidency to arrange for greater openness in the work of the Council. This is something which is really positive and timely. It is indeed a fundamental democratic right to be able to have insight into the actual processes of legislation and, in that way, to be able to insist upon political accountability. My question following on from this is about whether it has ever happened that whole Council meetings, from start to finish, have been open to the public. Or has it only been specified points on the agenda that have been debated in public? Have you ever, during your Presidency, been presented with objections which, in one meeting or another of the Council of Ministers, have prevented you from having as much openness as you would have wished for?"@en1
