Declaration and publication of meetings
Article 3
1. A manager shall declare all scheduled meetings relating to parliamentary business with interest representatives and representatives of public authorities of third countries in which he or she participates. 2. The declarations referred to in paragraph 1 shall be made by managers no later than thirty calendar days after the scheduled meeting took place. They shall be made using a dedicated e-form provided by Parliament. That e-form shall contain the following information: (a) the name and function of the manager; (b) the name of the organisation or the function or interests of the individual(s) met, without identifying the latter by name; (c) the date and place of the meeting; (d) the parliamentary business (report, opinion, resolution, plenary debate or urgency) to which the meeting is related. 3. The information referred to in paragraph 2 shall be published by Parliament. 4. By way of derogation from paragraphs 2 and 3, a scheduled meeting the disclosure of which would endanger the life, physical integrity or liberty of an individual or a scheduled meeting in respect of which there are other compelling reasons for maintaining confidentiality shall be declared in an appropriate way no later than thirty calendar days after it took place to the Secretary-General, or, in the case of a scheduled meeting of the Secretary-General, to the President. The Secretary-General, or, when applicable, the President, shall then decide either to keep that declaration confidential or to have it published in full or in anonymised form, including where appropriate on a delayed basis.
