"This report on the amendment of Rules 106 and 192 of, and Annex XVII to, Parliament’s Rules of Procedure, relating to the hearings of the Commissioners-designate, reflects on the strengthening of Parliament’s powers following the Treaty of Lisbon, in Parliament’s Rules of Procedure. The Commission is the government of the Union, and Parliament cannot stop exercising its power of scrutiny over the composition of this EU government. I agree with the proposed procedure of posing two common questions drafted by the Conference of Committee Chairs to each of the Commissioners-designate, the first relating to issues of general competence, European commitment and personal independence, and the second relating to management of the portfolio and cooperation with Parliament. The committee responsible is entrusted with drafting three other questions; in the case of joint committees, each is given the right to draft two questions. The proposal that the bulk of the speaking time be allotted to the political groups seems appropriate. I voted in favour for these reasons."@en1
