Paragraph 44 a (new)
44a. Welcomes that following the success of the European Parliament's Visitors Programme the annual quota of visitors per Member has been raised from 100 to 110; notes that one of the major risks identified by the Internal Audit Service in the specific audit of the Visitors' service relates to the subsidy paid to groups invited by Members; underlines that the Bureau adopted new rules governing those subsidies which provide a clear breakdown of amounts paid for travel and accommodation that came into force as of 1 January 2012; believes that the European Parliament's Visitors Programme is key to increase the citizens knowledge and interest in the Parliament's legislative work and that efforts should be made to allow as many citizens as possible to take part in the programme; calls therefore for a further increase of the annual quota of visitors per Member;
