lpv:translated text	"Until the Treaty of Lisbon strengthened the powers of this Parliament, the committees of inquiry were about as much use as a bicycle is to a fish. It may be an excellent invention, but it only works under certain conditions. Two are absolutely fundamental – the ability to use the pedals, and the art of maintaining balance. The Treaty of Lisbon has met the first condition. It gave Parliament greater powers in the use of committees of inquiry as an instrument of democratic control. The submitted draft regulation governs the working of the committees on the basis of these powers. The second condition is the maintenance of balance. Political and institutional. I consider the submitted text to be balanced, even if it may become apparent in practice that certain of its provisions will have to be amended. At present, however, it is important that we put it into practice as soon as possible."@en1
