A victory for #transparency!! 💪🇪🇺
@EDC_eudemocracy paved for the way for information on #europeanparties to be available from the @Europarl_EN to citizens without delay!
Before, information took up to 8 years to be available in full.
@edecapitani @wouter_wolfs @POLITICOEurope A victory for #transparency...
Over the past several years, @EDC_eudemocracy has made many, many requests to the European Parliament to access decisions by its Bureau on the funding of #europeanparties. These included decisions for funding (for the coming year) and final accounts (which wrap up the process).
Invariably, these documents were provided with heavy redactions over the parts covering the EP's reasoning for its decisions: we could see the outcome (amounts), but not how decisions were made. Until yesterday, the latest full document related to funding for 2015 -- 8 years ago.

Elections must not be a competition of dirty methods.

We want to set out new laws on political advertising, electoral rights and party funding.

The rules we propose aim at protecting election integrity and open democratic debate.

No one should be left behind in European democracy.

We are proposing to update EU rules on electoral rights and funding of political parties and foundations.

Our goal is to support inclusive participation in municipal elections and the 2024 elections to the @Europarl_EN.
People must be able to participate in open debates, free from disinformation.

To protect election integrity, we are proposing clear rules on political advertising. Our measures:

🔄Scope
🏷️Transparency labels
🎯 Strict rules for targeting and amplification
💶 Fines for breaches
