lpv:translated text	"I supported the proposal for a regulation to regulate the exercise of the European Parliament’s right of inquiry since the Treaty of Lisbon has changed the role of the European Parliament, and with it the right to carry out political oversight. Whereas the decision regarding the procedure for the right of inquiry was previously the joint task of the European Parliament, the Commission and the Council, now Parliament implements this through its regulation. Substantive differences in the new regulation include, for instance, the Commission’s right to request that the parliaments of Member States cooperate with them, the right to perform all manner of investigations (on-site investigation, the demanding of documents, etc.), and the new regulation also designates those who are required to compensate costs. The formation of European Parliament investigative committees and the use of the funds designated in the new regulation to provide compensation for illegal or unjust situations or to investigate alleged violations or incidents of maladministration will help fulfil Parliament’s powers of oversight (it is important to note that Parliament does, however, lack the right to enforce punishment in this area), which will also guarantee that the European Union institutions function more democratically."@en1
