ClientEarth briefing about proposed amendments on: The proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down the rules and general principles concerning mechanisms for control by Member States of the Commission’s exercise of implementing powers (COM(2010)0083 – C7-0073/2010 – 2010/0051(COD))

ClientEarth proposes amendments to a proposed EU regulation to ensure the European Parliament can scrutinize and oppose implementing acts. The briefing argues that 'control by Member States' should include the European Parliament as representatives of citizens. Proposed changes include a right of scrutiny to flag power excesses, guaranteed public access to documents under Regulation 1049/2001, and the ability for the Parliament to oppose or amend draft measures in the examination procedure based on legality, subsidiarity, or proportionality.

• ClientEarth argues that the European Parliament should participate in the adoption of implementing acts to increase transparency and democracy, opposing the Commission's view that 'control by Member States' refers exclusively to Committees.
• The briefing proposes that the European Parliament and Council be granted the right to indicate at any time if a draft implementing act exceeds its powers, is incompatible with the basic instrument's aim, or violates subsidiarity or proportionality.
