Abstract

As a consumer organisation we often find ourselves on the other side to business on many issues before the European Parliament and other decision-making bodies. In fact, however, we are not in any sense ‘against’ business or industry. We often work with allies from business on particular issues. More generally we see our role as offering a balancing and questioning contribution to what business and other interests are saying. (Of course it is essential that we know what others are saying — this is not always the case because there is too much ‘private’ consultation on the part of decision-makers in the Parliament and elsewhere.)
