Submission of contributions
The privacy statement explains how the Commission deals with personal data and contributions.
In the interests of transparency, organisations (for example, NGOs, trade associations and commercial enterprises) are invited to provide the public with relevant information about themselves by registering in the Transparency Register and subscribing to its Code of Conduct.
Those who represent a registered organisation are asked to indicate their Register ID number in the questionnaire. Their contribution is then considered as representing the views of their organisation. Responses from non-registered organisations will be published separately.
The Commission asks organisations who wish to submit comments in the context of public consultations to provide the Commission and the public with information about whom and what they represent. If an organisation decides not to provide this information, it is Commission policy to list the contribution as part of the individual contributions (see the Consultation standards in COM (2002) 704 and the Communication on the Follow-up to the European Transparency Initiative, COM (2007) 127).
