The European Ombudsman has found that the Commission disregarded important transparency laws in the preparation of the Europol regulation, which is part of the legislation aimed at combating "human smuggling of migrants." The investigation concluded that the Commission did not provide sufficient evidence to justify the claims of "urgency," thereby circumventing its own rules for "better regulation," as well as public consultations, thorough impact assessments, and the gathering of evidence. The article "Legislation against human smuggling of migrants: European Commission in violation of transparency laws" originally appeared on European Digital Rights (EDRi).
