"Impact assessments make a significant technical contribution to better law making as they show legislators the possible consequences of their policy options. They are a key instrument for the European legislative process.
The draft report divides these evaluations into four sections. The first section takes the view that the impact assessments used by the European institutions should comply with certain principles and should be completely independent and transparent. The second section discusses the Commission’s impact assessments and highlights scope for improvement. The third section is devoted to the impact assessments carried out by the European Parliament, which its committees are invited to use more extensively in order to further improve law making. The fourth and final section calls for an autonomous impact assessment structure within the European Parliament which all of Parliament’s committees should use to create more synergies. With regard to the above, and in view of the fact that impact assessments can in no way be a substitute for political debate and the legislator’s democratically legitimated decision-making process, but merely permit the technical, substantive preparation of a political decision, I voted in favour of the motion."@en1
