"The right of inquiry is an important feature of Parliament’s supervisory powers. The European Parliament’s right to set up temporary committees of inquiry to investigate alleged contraventions or maladministration in the implementation of Community law was elevated to primary law by the Maastricht Treaty. However, the Treaty did not provide information on specific powers granted to the European Parliament’s committees of inquiry, instead leaving the definition of any detailed provision to a future interinstitutional agreement. Thus, the time has arrived – partly through this vote – to lay down and regulate the issue, particularly in the light of the Treaty of Lisbon, which modified the institutional balance of the EU and strengthened the political stature of Parliament."@en1
