"This report concerns all the activities of the European Parliament’s Committee on Petitions during 2011 and provides statistics on the petitions submitted, which totalled 998, of which 649 were forwarded to the European Commission and the remainder were declared inadmissible. The report sets out the most common issues raised by the petitions of individual citizens or groups of citizens, such as infringements of EU law in the areas of the environment, justice and the internal market, with a significant number of cases involving complaints about decisions taken by national authorities or national courts. According to the comparison between 2009, 2010 and 2011, there has been a constant fall in the number of petitions submitted, which has dropped from 1 924 to 1 655 and then to 998 in 2011 or, in other words, a 52 % reduction compared to 2009 and a 60 % reduction compared to 2010. This drop will be due more to the discredited policies of the European Union and its institutions than a reduction in the reasons for complaint and dissatisfaction among citizens. We will continue to carefully monitor the complaints received by the Committee on Petitions and to act, as far as we can, to extend the scope and demand solutions to the reasonable problems presented by citizens."@en1
