In a study prepared by ALTER-EU (Alliance for Lobbying Transparency and Ethics Regulation - NGO group working for transparency) published last March seems unlikely that the Malta representatives in Brussels indulge too much transparency .
During 2015 ALTER-EU asked several representatives of member countries in the European Union to inform them through the procedures of the Freedom of Information Act on the list of meetings that the Malta representatives in Brussels have had with those called lobbyists - that is seeking to influence decision-making and the formulation of policy for European institutions.
The Maltese representatives in Brussels ( according to the report ) was one of two countries that refused to give this information. Lo h others were the UK representatives.
