Eva Kaili, Greek MEP at the centre of the Qatargate scandal
MEPs are demanding a rapid revision of the Members’ code of conduct, including effective sanctions.
The Code should protect whistleblowers more effectively and strengthen rules on conflicts of interest, asset declarations and disclosure of side income, as well as banning paid side work for entities covered by the Transparency Register.
The Transparency Register’s scope and monitoring should be expanded and all MEPs should declare scheduled meetings with interest representatives, including those with diplomatic representatives from non-EU countries.
