Résumé :
[en] This briefing note focuses on the legal and non-legal avenues by which
transparency and participation have been ensured in EU law and
practice. Transparency and participation have produced the main recent
changes in the way the EU administration relates to its citizens. We
provide an overview of the current law and practice and their strengths
and weaknesses post-Lisbon. In addition, reference is made to the
European Ombudsman and the right to petition the European Parliament.
