6. Änderungsantrag 6 · Vorschlag für einen BeschlussAbgelehnt

   Paragraph 9

   Eingereicht von Antonio Maria Rinaldi, Gerolf Annemans, Gilles Lebreton · ID

   9. Believes Entfernt: the body should rely on the existing powers of institutions to ask their members for information or on the agreement of national authorities to share information; believes that the independent experts should be able to exchange information with national authorities where necessary for the performance of their tasks, while treating such information with the same confidentiality as the originating authority did; stresses in this regard that the independent experts should have access to the administrative documents of participating parties, especially the party consulting them on a case, Hinzugefügt: that, in order to Entfernt: allow them to carry out well-reasoned and well-documented assessments; Hinzugefügt: prevent the repetition of episodes such as Qatargate, there is no need for an ethics body such as the one being proposed, but rather for the proper application of the Institution's internal rules and compliance with the law; recalls that, in any case, the conduct concerned was criminal and not merely "unethical" in nature and, therefore, the presence of an ethics body would not have prevented its occurrence; reiterates, for this reason, the need to establish a committee of inquiry to shed light on the political responsibilities resulting from the corruption affair and from the involvement of political figures in this Parliament;

Entfernt: Recalls its position that the body should be able to investigate on its own initiative alleged breaches of ethical rules by officials and staff of EU institutions and to conduct on-the-spot and records-based investigations using the information that it has collected or that it has received from third parties; Hinzugefügt: Emphasises that safeguarding the independence of Parliament and parliamentarians is crucial, and something which a third-party body, called upon to set rules intended for the European Parliament and institutions in general, could jeopardise; believes that, as conceived, the Ethics Body represents more a new waste of public resources than real added value;
