"I voted in favour of thus report which was concerned with access to documents. I recently attended the TTIP secret Reading room where I was allowed to consult TTIP consolidated chapters, under the condition that I not divulge any information I had read. My phone was taken from me and I was accompanied into the room by an official, who remained in the reading room the entire time.
Not having proper access to this important information flies in the face of democracy and is an insult to the citizens who elect MEPs to represent them in Europe.
This report criticises the lack of clarity in international dealings and the lack of transparency of ECB, EIB and EU institutions. My party have been very vocal on the fact that the effectiveness of EU law is systematically undermined by the EU routinely ignoring every legal and constitutional obstacle in its way in order to increase its supranational power. This lack of transparency, democracy and accountability has led to a widespread lack of trust and confidence in the aims and objectives of the European Union. Therefore, as the report progressively tackled these matters, I voted in favour of it."@en1
