Annual Report of Commission

The Commission has published its Annual Report for 2007.

There's a special web page devoted to it here.

The report is well worth looking at because it contains such of a wealth of information, despite some of the propaganda-speak. Look at this annex on the revenues of the EC budget for example. That's good.

There's still some of this kind of fluff, however:

"The progress made in recent years with the strategy to create a modern and effective regulatory culture throughout Europe was consolidated in 2007. The Commission used the experience gained from the measures taken to improve legislation in order to refine its approach further and satisfy the demands of European citizens and economic operators for a simple and accessible regulatory framework."

But if you can grin and bear it, there is some hard information lurking there.

You are not totally convinced on the progress claimed by the Commission, are you? Not fully consolidated, yet?

It just leaves me wondering what the European Parliament has had to say on its own regulatory practices and transparency. Something equally convincing, I suppose.

Seriously, the Annual Report is a treasure trove of information for eveyone interested, as you correctly mention.
