It also calls for a comprehensive financial pre-screening before an NGO is listed on the EU transparency register, for any contractual agreements with the Commission to be published, and a clear definition of which NGOs are allowed to register and are eligible to receive EU funding.\u00a0 Nevertheless, it also deplores the use of the corruption scandal \u201cto launch a misguided smearing campaign\u201d against NGOs and spread misinformation on the lack of transparency of their funding, reiterating its unwavering support to civil society organisations that speak up for human rights and the environment in full respect of the rules.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">MEPs also want the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.europarl.europa.eu\/news\/en\/press-room\/20230210IPR74716\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ING2<\/a>\u00a0Committee and other responsible bodies to revise Parliament\u2019s ethics rules before the summer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">The resolution was adopted with 401 votes for, three against, and 133 abstentions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>No more delays for the independent ethics body<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Parliament reiterates its call for an independent ethics body for the EU institutions, based on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.europarl.europa.eu\/news\/en\/press-room\/20210910IPR11931\/parliament-calls-for-eu-independent-ethics-body\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MEPs\u2019 proposals of September 2021<\/a>, to restore citizens\u2019 trust.
