lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, the programme for better legislation aims to improve the transparency of the Union, to ensure its effectiveness, efficiency and to move closer to the goal of implementing the Lisbon Strategy. The programme is also intended as a response to accusations that Brussels all too frequently opts for legislative mechanisms and, as a result, creates too many laws. Until now, the Union’s has consisted of tonnes of documents written in a language that is unintelligible to citizens, generally drawn up without consulting European social partners or European citizens. This last accusation suggests that European Union legislation is created without the participation of the citizens of Europe, for whom we, as the European Parliament, work and whom we represent. What should be done to change this image and to bring the European Union closer to its citizens, now that it finds itself in the midst of a constitutional crisis? It seems that withdrawing these 68 pieces of draft legislation is a step in the right direction, but is it enough of a step in terms of better legislation? It does not seem enough. It seems that, in order to improve legislation, we need better inter-institutional cooperation between the Commission and Parliament. We need these two institutions to have, as part of their structure, special groups created to work towards better legislation. These groups will act as the conscience of the EU, a legislative barometer which will issue a warning if one of the institutions lapses into bureaucratic routine and acts against the code of good EU legislation and legislative principles such as appropriateness, subsidiarity, cohesion, transparency, proportionality and predictability. Commissioner, I have no doubt that good EU legislation will be possible when good cooperation is established between the Commission and Parliament. Parliament and the Commission must trust each other, respect each other and treat each other as full partners with complete respect and trust. Only then will the legislation improve. Only then will we be able to create legislation together for the good of the citizens."@en1
