"Our democracy is based on representativeness, which is put into practice through political parties. These are, for that very reason, democratic instruments representing the legitimate interests of the public, both closely, such as through local government, and at a more distant level, through their representation in the European institutions. It is no coincidence that the Members of the European Parliament are organised into political parties, and thus seek to represent the interests of the public in line with an agenda of priorities defined by their political orientation. As the rapporteur says, ‘creating a safe and transparent environment for the function and the funding of European political parties is an act deeply democratic’, so I believe that the initiative to establish a clear regulatory framework on their recognition and funding is a positive step."@en1
