Description

This will be done by working towards the establishment of an appropriate forum for EU Member State and European Commission transparency specialists to hold technical discussions and share information, and that EU MS work towards a clear and common goal for increased transparency and accountability. Further, Sweden will contribute to the process by sharing its experiences of implementing a national transparency initiative, ensuring leverage from its role as one of the key actors in the ongoing international discussions on how to deliver on the Busan commitments. Where appropriate, Sweden should also promote dialogue on technical issues with non-EU entities involved in transparency with a view to fostering informed EU discussions.
