The European Ombudsman can help resolve problems that arise in the operation of the 'European Citizens' Initiative' (ECI), which was launched on 1 April 2012. The ECI allows for one million EU citizens from at least seven Member States to call on the European Commission to propose legislation in areas falling within EU competence. The Ombudsman will be an important redress mechanism for individuals and organisations who have complaints about maladministration in the Commission's handling of citizens' initiatives. |
