I welcome the adoption of this report, which, in my view, will enable us to improve significantly the relations between interest representatives and the EU institutions.
Rather than trying to establish and keep up-to-date a comprehensive list of these representatives – a tedious and perhaps even impossible task – it proposes, in particular, establishing a global definition of the term ‘lobby’, which will ensure that any bodies that are not on the list cannot get around the rules we have laid down.
Another major step forward is the harmonisation and simplification of the regulatory framework applicable to lobbyists, and in particular the creation of a single register that is common to all the institutions, which will list all lobbyists and will, in the long term, become a reference and a pledge of seriousness and credibility for all accredited organisations.
However, this register will also promote greater transparency vis-à-vis the general public because it will be accessible online in its entirety and will include for each body its complete identification details, including details of its staff, as well as all of the pertinent financial information relating to it.
In addition to this ‘one-stop shop’ a common code of ethical behaviour, Members of the European Parliament who draw up a report will have the opportunity to list in the report the names of the organisations that have helped them with their work."@en1
