Although European Union MPs have serious concern about the affected campaigns being affected by Chinese tech supplier Huawei in Brussels, European Union Commission Chairman Ursula von Der Leyen (CDU) does not see any rapid reform requirement for lobbying rules for executive and legislative bodies of the community. Above all, it does not consider a quick review of the transparency register necessary. According to magazine urector magazine, the heads of the Brussels government institute now know the anti -corruption platform of the European Union Parliament. The Commission had earlier asked in March to be “immediate” on the matter.
Belgian corruption is investigated against the background Huawei lobist and European Union MPs and their employees. The office of the Public Prosecutor is one of the suspects of the highest Huawei managers and one of the pre-lobes in Europe. Law enforcement officers formed him “active bribe of an officer”, formation of a criminal association and money laundering. On behalf of Parliament, an open letter in favor of Huawei is said to be a pre-recommendation of Forza-Itima Member Phulvio Martsicillo that he has arranged for payment by challans for alleged counseling services and election campaign costs.
Explained by Leyen According to eurachativ Well, the control of the lobby register for this year is still planned. This provides a good opportunity to assess whether the instrument meets its goals. “The Commission is ready to discuss further with Parliament and the Council as part of this review process,” he writes the major politicians in response to the Anti -Corporation Forum. The Deputies had already warned as the transparency register did not record diplomats and non -converting lobists. Open the back doors.
Lobby Register: Hochig like Swiss Paneer
For von Der Leyen, the lobby directory is not “designed nor suitable” to compete criminal tasks such as bribery or fraud. It also makes it clear that the embassy employees of third countries do not fall into the field of application of the register. All other institutions working on behalf of foreign governments will have to be registered.
According to the revelations of the Huawei corruption scam, the Commission issued internal instructions to suspend all meetings and contacts with Huawei by the next notice. Representatives of the people are afraid of flaws. According to reports, Huawei continues to advocate in the European Union despite rising pressure. Daniel Fraven Von Dye Grunen, who heads the anti-corruption corruption group, reported that Huawei-connected lobists may still enter the assets of European Union institutes or membership in registered umbrella organizations with visitor cards.
The frame described the north from leans to uractable as inadequate: There should also be more transparency in lobbying from outside the European Union. In May, Parliament tightened its lobbying rules. Now all representatives of interests are required to register your journey and activate the ID card. European Court auditors complained last year Transparency register is bled like Swiss cheeseCitizens can fundamentally inform themselves about potential lobby effects. Interest representatives will only have to register for meetings with the highest ranking staff in European Union institutions and will only be taken into account. Spontaneous meetings, phone calls and emails were released. There is also a risk that the third party was veil by their financial sources.
