lpv:translated text	"Mr President, complaints submitted by citizens are an important source of information about infringements of Community law. The case in hand, which has been dragging on for seven years, concerns the German Government’s failure to implement properly the directive on certain aspects of the organisation of working time (that is Directive 2003/88, which revoked and replaced Directive 93/104). In the Ombudsman’s opinion, the lack of an effective response on the part of the European Commission constitutes maladministration. The unjustified period of time, sometimes amounting to several years, which the Commission takes to prepare its response in cases of negligence on the part of Member States gives cause for concern, as do the numerous cases of Member States’ failure to comply with judgments of the Court of Justice. Such practices undermine faith in the consistent application of Community law, discredit the aims of the European Union, and diminish citizens’ confidence in the EU institutions. The manner in which citizens’ complaints are examined must conform to the principles of good administration. Complaints must be examined efficiently and in the shortest possible time."@en1
