Question for written answer E-001407/2025
to the Commission
Rule 144
Daniel Freund (Verts/ALE), Jutta Paulus (Verts/ALE)
On 1 April 2025, the Commission issued a statement on the LIFE programme – the EU’s funding instrument for the environment and climate action. It states that the Commission ‘has recognised that in some cases work programmes submitted by the NGOs and annexed to the operating grant agreements contained specific advocacy actions and undue lobbying activities’[1]. In this context, we would like to know:
Which lobbying activities included in the grant agreements does the Commission consider to be ‘undue’?
