Transparency International EU submission to the EU ombudsman public consultation on balanced Commission expert groups

Transparency International EU responds to the EU Ombudsman public consultation on balanced expert groups. While Transparency International EU recognises the disparities in terms of resource capacity of different types of stakeholder, and the de-facto limitations this places on the pool of potential experts for the Commission, we believe that more efforts could, and should, reasonably be made by the Commission to protect a more representative balance of interests.
