"I voted in favour. The regulation on the citizens’ initiative (Procedure File No was adopted on 16 February 2010 and applies as of 1 April 2012. It allows for the submission to the Commission of initiatives by Union citizens for any appropriate proposal on matters where citizens consider that a legal act of the Union is required for the purpose of implementing the Treaties, and which has received the support of at least 1 million signatories from at least one quarter of all Member States. The regulation provides for organisers to present the initiative at a public hearing. According to Article 11 of the regulation, the Commission and Parliament shall ensure that this hearing is organised at the European Parliament, if appropriate together with such other institutions and bodies of the union as may wish to participate. For our group, it is vital to ensure workable rules that allow for the proper organisation of the hearings, and proper involvement of the Petitions Committee, where desired, and to avoid a mix-up or alteration of current decision-making powers within the House."@en1
