lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, I think lobbying is in some respects an unfortunate word to use, because it has a negative tone to it. Done properly, it can actually be very beneficial. I was rapporteur on data protection for the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy and the lobbying done – if you want to call it that – was open, transparent and very informative. In particular, it can give examples of where the unintended consequences of proposed legislation could be damaging and obviously amendments can be made accordingly. But it is also very important that we have total transparency in regard to it, particularly if it is overdone. There was a lot of talk recently about the Tobacco Directive and the influence there from lobbyists. I think that once we have proper transparency, a proper register and an account of the lobbying done, that will go a long way to allaying people’s fears regarding it."@en1
