Ombudsman launches public consultation on transparency of ‘trilogues’

On the 10 December 2015 the European Ombudsman, Emily O'Reilly, invited feedback from individuals, NGOs, business associations and other organisations on the transparency of 'trilogues'.

Trilogues are informal negotiations between the Parliament, the Council and the Commission aimed at reaching agreements on new EU legislation.

The public consultation will feed into the European Ombudsman's overall assessment of what steps can be taken to make trilogues more transparent.
