"The nomination of Mr Fazakas as a member of the European Court of Auditors has caused heated and controversial debate in the Committee on Budgetary Control. Although his nomination has been known since November, just a few days prior to his nomination hearing in the committee, information was spread about Mr Fazakas’ possible collaboration with the state secret police. I am astonished that the question of Mr Fazakas’ competency is only being raised now, as Hungary is preparing for elections, whereas in the five years that Mr Fazakas has been a Member of the European Parliament, Chair of the Committee on Budgetary Control and Quaestor, the question of his competency and ability to carry out his duties was not raised. I am convinced that the European Parliament is no place for nebulous political games; therefore, I supported Mr Fazakas’ nomination. I think that there was ample time between November and the hearing for the interested parties to provide suitably substantiated information about circumstances that could have had an influence on Mr Fazakas’ appointment to the European Court of Auditors and to ensure an exhaustive parliamentary assessment, but this was not done."@en1
