lpv:translated text	". Although the text talks about ‘deepening of democracy’ and mentions ‘emphasis on administrative openness and transparency’ and despite its very aim which is to give the Ombudsman greater access to official documents, its whole spirit is marked by a concern to preserve the ‘professional secrecy’ of the information to which the Ombudsman may have access. Rather than making the institutions and their operation more transparent, the function of the Ombudsman only serves to conceal the fact they are in no way transparent for the overwhelming majority of the population. As a result, we did not vote in favour of the report. And although we did not vote against it either, this is solely because the official French authorities are rising up against slightly more flexible access – solely for the Ombudsman! – to ‘classified documents’, in the name of the Europe of defence and are calling for the report to be rejected. We reaffirm our opposition both to commercial and industrial secrecy and to the so-called State secrets, which are not so much aimed at protecting the State against a third country as at concealing the actions, including the most disgraceful actions, of the State institutions from their own populations."@en1
