Amendment 47 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 66
(66) The publication of the name of the beneficiaries of the Funds provides a means of reinforcing the public control of the use of the Funds and is necessary to ensure an adequate level of protection of the Union's financial interest. That is achieved partly by the preventive and deterrent effect of such publication, partly by discouraging individual beneficiaries from irregular behaviour and also partly by reinforcing the personal accountability of the farmers for use of public funds received, and by helping to ensure that the rules against conflicts of interests are complied with. The publication of the relevant information is consistent with recent case- law of the Court of Justice of the European Union and also with the approach as set out in Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 966/2012. In the case of recipients who have economic, family or other ties with persons working for the public authorities of a Member State, this information may also be published.

Amendment 48 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 67
(67) In this context the role played by civil society, including by the media and non-governmental organisations and their contribution to reinforcing the administrations' control framework against fraud and any misuse of public funds, should be properly recognised, in particular in the case of beneficiaries who have economic, family or other ties with persons working for the public authorities of a Member State, this information may also be published.

Amendment 49 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 69
(69) If the objective of the public control of the use of the money from the Funds is to be achieved, a certain level of information about beneficiaries needs to be brought to the attention of the public. That information should include data on the identity of the beneficiary, the amount awarded and the fund from which it comes, and the purpose and nature of the type of intervention or measure concerned. When recipients have economic, family or other ties with persons working for the public authorities of a Member State, that information should be provided in such a way that will make it possible for the public to identify any potential conflict of interest. The publication of that information should be made in such a way as to cause less interference with the beneficiaries' right to respect for their private life, and to their right to protection of their personal data, both rights which are recognised in Articles 7 and 8 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.
