The European Parliament's committee on constitutional affairs (AFCO) rejected on Wednesday a draft plan to implement an EU body for ethical standards, agreed by European institutions after the allegations of corruption involving Qatar and Morocco that hit the Parliament from December 2022.
In spring 2024, eight of the institutions and advisory bodies of the EU signed an agreement to establish the so-called “Interinstitutional Body for Ethical Standards for Members of Institutions and Advisory Bodies of the EU”.
