"The Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and the application of Regulation (EU) No 211/2011 strengthened the right of every European citizen to participate in the democratic life of the EU through the European Citizens’ Initiative. Furthermore, citizens may also make use of the right to submit petitions where they consider there has been a violation of EU law. I have been able to observe the activities of the Committee on Petitions, including some cases involving Italy, and I must congratulate its members and the Chair, Ms Mazzoni, on their work to date, which ensures contact and dialogue with citizens, raising awareness of the importance of EU law. In view of the number of petitions declared inadmissible because they do not fall within the competences of the committee, I think that an information campaign would be a good idea in order to clarify the competencies and functioning of the European institutions."@en1
