"Creating a common transparency register is certainly an important step forward, much awaited by European citizens. EU institutions, whether elected or not, make decisions which affect citizens’ everyday lives. In a democratic system, which the EU aspires to, it is completely natural for there to be a high level of transparency in the decision-making process.
This common transparency register also simplifies matters for lobbyists as this will provide a single means of registration instead of two, which is currently the case. On the other hand, this register will not, admittedly, be an adequate instrument for resolving the problem of corruption. However, I do not believe that the register’s primary aim is solely to combat corruption as the instances of corruption have, however, been very few and far between."@en1
