schestowitz | Would you FFII activists please explain to our mutual friend Dr. Roy why your organization, unlike more than 3,000 others of its kind, has not signed up to the European Commission's lobbyist register that was launched on 23 June 2008 and requires annual registration by the middle of the year, stating funding for the previous year? | Sep 09 09:07 |
schestowitz | Sep 09 09:07 | |
schestowitz | Dr. Roy obviously hasn't asked me to ask this question on his behalf, but I know he's genuinely concerned about fake representation and attempts to advance corporate interests under "fauxpen source" or "faux free" umbrellas. In your case, a registration in 2008 would have helped to see who funded you in 2007 in connection with the NoOOXML campaign. You didn't register in 2008; nor in 2009; and in 2010 you're already more than three | Sep 09 09:08 |
schestowitz | months past the generous deadline set by the Commission. | Sep 09 09:08 |
schestowitz | Sep 09 09:08 | |
schestowitz | Since TechRights is such a relentless lobbying watchdog, I really think it would be appropriate for the FFII to tell Dr. Roy why you don't want to do what more than 3,000 other lobbying entities have already done. You might also wish to explain why you on the one hand repeatedly advocated strict transparency standards but actually don't even comply with the Commission's modest requirements. There can be no doubt whatsoever that the | Sep 09 09:08 |
schestowitz | FFII continually engages in the kind of lobbying activity dictating registration (while I, by the way, haven't done any non-exempt work related to EU decision-making processes in more than three years). | Sep 09 09:08 |
schestowitz | Sep 09 09:08 | |
schestowitz | Given that the FFII always wanted more transparency, why don't you lead by example? Why don't you practice what you preach? What do you have to hide? | Sep 09 09:08 |
