".
Mr President, I would like to congratulate Mr Diamandouros, the European Ombudsman, on a report which once again enjoys such considerable political support and recognition of the European Ombudsman’s contribution. It is rare to have such support and recognition from the Commission, which is one of the favourite targets of your investigations. I would also like to underline the contribution made by the European Ombudsman to improving the culture of good administration at both European and national level, and the excellent cooperation which has existed between you and the Committee on Petitions not just in 2011, but as a matter of routine over the past few years.
Finally, our report says something which must concern us, Commissioner Šefčovič: 58 % of inquiries concern the European Commission. Furthermore, in 2012 there are still cases, including in the Committee on Petitions, which allege a lack of transparency and a lack of cooperation on the part of the European Commission in its dealings with European citizens.
Finally, I wish you success, Mr Diamandouros, and I hope you will have the same success in your efforts to persuade the national ombudsmen that they too have a fundamental duty to ensure that the Member States serve their own citizens."@en1
