European Commission response on NGO funding avoids core issues
On October 13, 2006 the European Commission published answers to questions on NGO funding tabled by MEP Paul Van Buitenan in May, 2006. NGO Monitor is preparing a detailed analysis of the response for next month. Van Buitenan has included NGO Monitor’s research and analysis to further challenge the Commission on its funding of a number of politicised NGO s, including ICAHD and Miftah. His new questions, submitted on December 4, await a response.
