"I voted in favour of this proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament on the detailed provisions governing the exercise of the European Parliament’s right of inquiry and repealing Decision 95/167/EC, Euratom, ECSC of the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission. The Treaty of Lisbon created conditions for a renewed, stronger institutional balance within the European Union, allowing its institutions to function more efficiently, openly and democratically. In this context, the European Parliament’s functions in terms of political control were reinforced and extended. Therefore, in accordance with both national parliamentary practice and the requirements under the Treaty on European Union, the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community, the European Parliament’s committees of inquiry should be reinforced and be granted specific, genuine and clearly delimited powers which are more in line with its political stature and competences, while respecting the principle of proportionality as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on European Union. The powers of the committees of inquiry, which are exceptional instruments of political control, should not impact on the responsibilities of other institutions."@en1
