lpv:translated text	"I welcome this motion for a resolution on better legislation, subsidiarity and proportionality and smart regulation because the European Union’s law-making process needs to be constantly refined and developed, and the decision-making process must be brought as close to citizens as possible. When drafting legislation, all European institutions must pay greater attention to the implementation of the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality. Furthermore, it is very important to ensure that all EU citizens are able to use their rights as effectively as possible, so that they can have a greater influence on EU policies defending their interests. Consequently, it is crucial for the public to be properly informed about the implementation of the European Citizens’ Initiative. The proper implementation of this initiative will help the European Union come closer to citizens and suitably implement the principles of direct democracy. Attention should be drawn to the importance of national parliaments to the EU law-making process. National parliaments must become more effective players in the political process, at both national and European levels. We must make every effort to ensure that the problem of democratic deficit is addressed and the administrative burden is reduced by developing cooperation between national parliaments and the European Parliament. It is crucial to stress that only through subsidiarity monitoring can national parliaments have a real influence on the European Parliament. Consequently, I believe that we must set longer timescales, which would enable national parliaments to provide a more detailed analysis on compliance with the principle of subsidiarity."@en1
