Paragraph 4
4. Emphasises that Parliament and Member States should be fully informed of the timeline and of the content of envisaged delegated measures; takes the view that the intention to endorse or reject a draft RTS or delegated act should be sent in writing to the Chair of Parliament's competent committee and to the rapporteur and shadow rapporteurs, giving reasons; holds that in the case of delegated acts the Commission must likewise inform Parliament and the Member States when it does not intend to follow ESA advice, specifying where and why it has chosen not to do so, and including thorough cost- benefit and legal analysis to support its decision as well as reasoned answers to any written comments raised by the co- legislators; considers that there should be full transparency vis-à-vis all stakeholders on progress; observes that the Commission's interpretation of the Framework Agreement2 sometimes makes it difficult and cumbersome for Parliament experts to attend expert group meetings dealing with delegated acts and means that Parliament is not placed on an equal footing with Member States and the Council;
