The Ombudsman launched an initiative looking into how the European Commission implements its commitment to make available information about meetings between commissioners and organisations or self-employed individuals.

The Ombudsman wrote to the Commission President, urging her to remind commissioners of their obligations to publish information on meetings with organisations or self-employed individuals within two weeks of the date of the meeting.

The Commission replied to the Ombudsman informing her of its efforts to remind commissioners of the above obligations, including a recent note to the heads of the personal offices of commissioners (cabinets) circulated in January 2022.

The Ombudsman welcomes the Commission’s efforts and, since the dedicated transparency websites of the commissioners have been updated, she closes the initiative.
