Madrid, March 25, 2025.- The Minister for Digital Transformation and Public Service, Óscar López, said that “the government’s commitment to transparency and accountability is firm and ambitious and, in times of attack on European democratic values, the best antidote against anti-politics is citizen confidence”. These words were pronounced in the plenary of the Congress during the debate of totality to the draft law of transparency and integrity of the activities of interest groups. The minister has defended the so-called ‘Lobbies Law’ against the amendment to the totality presented by the Vox Parliamentary Group, which urges its return, and has called for the vote of all parliamentary groups to improve the law and so that it can continue its processing and can see its main objective fulfilled: to provide us with greater transparency and integrity in the relations that the interest groups maintain with the public personnel of the General Administration of the State and with the institutional public sector. He insisted on the need to make progress on projects, such as the one being debated by the Congress, which open up to the public the decision-making processes and the design of laws. The interest groups, “despite what the amendment says in its entirety, are not a conspiracy caricature, they are civil society organizations that represent such diverse areas as disability, banking, infrastructure or the fight against cancer.”
