"In 2006, the Commission proposed a ‘one-stop shop’ to register lobbyists of the Commission and Parliament. In a resolution adopted in the plenary of 8 May 2008, Parliament welcomed the proposal and called for an interinstitutional agreement on the establishment of a common register between Parliament, the Commission and the Council. Moreover, at that time, Parliament proposed negotiations on a common code of conduct for the lobbyists and discussion of the sanctions that should apply in the event of an infringement.
Under this agreement, permanent access to the Parliament premises is allowed only to the registered interest representatives. Nevertheless, the common register seeks to ensure the widest participation of all categories of operators while respecting their different or specific duties. The scope of the register excludes social partners, churches, political parties and local, regional and municipal authorities, taking into account their particular characteristics.
Such an agreement would benefit from being joined by the Council. I believe that Parliament and its Members should lead by example as regards the transparency of their activities and the clarity of their aims.
I voted in favour."@en1
