"− I welcome the report by Mr Lamassoure and Mrs Gurmai on the citizens’ initiative. This vote has approved and even helps lay down the ground rules for the operation of the European citizens’ initiative, as provided for in the Treaty of Lisbon. A citizens’ committee composed of persons coming from at least seven Member States may register an initiative and begin to gather the 1 million signatures necessary, on paper or online, once the Commission has carried out an admissibility check. This example of participative democracy has great potential because it involves citizens at first hand and enables them, in a certain sense, to be a part of our work. The joint work by the two co-rapporteurs showed that even ideological divisions can be overcome when work is carried out effectively and in the interests of citizens. This underlying position is typical of the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats), which is always pro-active, open to dialogue and cooperation, but at the same time is anchored in solid and unshakeable values."@en1
