"I support the own-initiative report by Mrs Jäätteenmäki on the European Ombudsman’s access to information, and the need for a clearer set of regulations, as it seeks to lay down more precise rules in this area.
According to the text the various bodies and institutions of the European Union must supply the Ombudsman with all the information asked for, whereas until now a document could be refused on the pretext of confidentiality.
Similarly, the obligation on officials to provide testimony ‘pursuant to instructions from their administrations’ is to be removed, while the official in question is to be required to tell the truth in all honesty.
Mrs Jäätteenmäki’s proposals are aimed at strengthening the public’s confidence in the activities of the European Ombudsman and as such they are worthy of implementation."@en1
