". Whilst we share the rapporteur’s objective of transparency and whilst we acknowledge his good intentions, we did not vote for the amendments to the text proposed by the Commission. The best is the enemy of the good. The amendments would create too broad a scope and would eliminate all the elements of flexibility contained in the Commission proposals. Furthermore, they would make the new regulation retroactive, which we consider contravenes fundamental principles of the law. Ultimately, a strict application of the amended text would result in excessive bureaucracy, involving the classification of documents, registers, appeals procedures and the need for the Union to recruit new officials. The democratic nature of the institutions will only be more effectively safeguarded with the Commission’s original proposals, which we consider to be reasonable and quite sufficient. Article 255 of the Treaty does not require any more to be done."@en1
