"Question No 47 by Charlotte Cederschiöld (): The European Agency for Network and Information Security (IT Agency) is reportedly to be located on Crete, a good two hours from the nearest airport in a village with no broadband facility. The Commission previously gave the impression that a location close to modern communications, infrastructure, research and an IT industry would be best for the Agency and the work it is being set up to do. In the light of this information, does the Commission consider it the optimal situation for the Council to be able to take decisions concerning the location of agencies and authorities behind closed doors? Should such decisions not be taken with greater openness so that the factual arguments in favour of the location can be given greater weight? Does the Commission consider that the location of the IT Agency may have a detrimental effect on its work? Will the Agency be able to carry out its work in accordance with the regulation? Furthermore, does the Commission consider that it would be more cost-effective and efficient if EU agencies and authorities came under the Commission for administrative purposes? The Member States' requirement of one representative per country is in danger of creating ineffective decision-making forums. Should expertise not weigh more heavily in the balance than national interests in such contexts so that industry and consumer organisations get better representation? Is the Commission satisfied with the current situation in which countries without railways are represented on the Railway Agency and countries without sea are represented on the Maritime Safety Agency?"@en1
