English – EU commission vice-president Frans Timmermans has taken a swipe at MEPs who preach transparency but have not implemented the same rules as the commission when it comes to meetings with lobbyists.
Making a pointed reference to this “august” building during a transparency debate on Thursday (23 April), Timmermans noted that while the parliament asks many questions of him, it gets “irritated” when the process is reversed.
