"Mr President, Commissioner, I am in a paradoxical situation, as has happened on a number of occasions, for example when the rapporteur, Mr Pistelli, who was in the vanguard of what will undoubtedly be the European Parliament’s position on transparency, was unfortunately disregarded by our committee. I am therefore delighted with what I am sure will be our final result today. It is impossible to imagine the markets functioning properly with transparency being anything other than the fundamental rule. We, the legislators, must apply that rule to ourselves, particularly as we know all too well that in our legislative process – and I say this to the previous speaker – our relations with external representatives, be they pressure groups or religious organisations – and that is directed at Mr Friedrich – play a decisive role in our European legislative process. It is our duty to set an example in this area, including going as far as ensuring the systematic use of this idea of a ‘legislative footprint’, which I think would be extremely beneficial."@en1
