MEPs debate the Commission’s long-awaited proposal for an ethics body covering all EU institutions, published on 8 June. Parliament called for the creation of such a body for the first time in September 2021, and twice again in the wake of recent corruption allegations - in December 2022 and February 2023. The Special Committee on Foreign Interference also included relevant proposals in its report earlier this month.
