Incentive measures

The committee backed the introduction of incentive measures that would
link the registration to:

*further facilitation of access to Parliament's premises and help in
contacting MEPs,
*easier authorisation to organise or co-host events on its premises,
*facilitated transmission of information, including through specific
mailing lists,
*participation as speakers in committee hearings,
*better chances of getting patronage by the institution for events,


The committee also encouraged the Commission to adopt similar measures.
