"Mr President, when we talk about transparency, we cannot talk in the abstract. Our voters should know who is in the seats of the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy when we are discussing REACH or the telecommunications package; they should know who is tabling amendments; they should know who is preparing many of the reports of this Parliament, which they can find out through this Parliament’s webpage, and they should know, through a register, who is spending hundreds of hours in the corridors of Parliament. This is all possible. Just as they should know who attends a committee meeting and who attends plenary – through Parliament’s website – our voters should know which lobbyists are spending hundreds of hours at our meetings.
We want transparency, but we want this to be truthful. We want it to be known, after the vote on each report, which lobbyists have tabled the amendments that are shaping our future, word for word, amendment by amendment. Thank you."@en1
