Bruxelles, 5. februar 2026 \u2013 World Vapers' Alliance (WVA) advarer om, at Europa-Kommissionens \u201cDagsordenen for "bedre regulering"<\/a> glider v\u00e6k fra sit form\u00e5l ved at tilsides\u00e6tte de borgere, som den h\u00e6vder at tjene, og bruge h\u00f8ringer som gummistempler i stedet for beviser til at vejlede politikudformningen. I sin bidrag<\/a> til Kommissionens opfordring til at indsende beviser, WVA understreger, at borgerne skal forblive i centrum for EU's lovgivning og have en reel og praktisk chance for at forme regler, der direkte p\u00e5virker deres liv.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201c"Tusindvis af borgere tager sig tid til at svare p\u00e5 EU-h\u00f8ringer i god tro, men n\u00e5r deres synspunkter ikke stemmer overens med Kommissionens politiske linje, bliver de ofte afvist eller fremstillet som illegitime."\u201d<\/em><\/strong> sagde Alberto G\u00f3mez Hern\u00e1ndez, politisk leder hos World Vapers' Alliance. \u201c"Det er ikke en seri\u00f8s offentlig h\u00f8ring; det er at afkrydse nogle afkrydsningsfelter. Hvis Kommissionen \u00f8nsker tillid, skal den starte med at respektere de mennesker, den h\u00e6vder at konsultere."\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

En nylig Clearing the Air-unders\u00f8gelsen <\/a>\u00a0afsl\u00f8rede, hvordan en mindre kendt NGO er blevet brugt til at sm\u00e6de almindelige europ\u00e6ere, der har svaret p\u00e5 h\u00f8ringen om tobaksafgiftsdirektivet, og stempler deres bidrag som "falske" eller branchedrevne, blot fordi de modsatte sig Kommissionens tilgang. Denne fort\u00e6lling blev derefter citeret for at retf\u00e6rdigg\u00f8re ignorering af tusindvis af kritiske svar, hvorved den offentlige mening i realiteten blev behandlet som en hindring snarere end en ressource for bedre politik.<\/p>\n

\u201c"Det er dybt bekymrende at se borgere, der fulgte alle regler og brugte officielle EU-kanaler, blive fremstillet som marionetter, bare fordi de var uenige."\u201d<\/em><\/strong> tilf\u00f8jede G\u00f3mez Hern\u00e1ndez. \u201c"H\u00f8ringer b\u00f8r styre politikudformningen, ikke bruges som v\u00e5ben mod de mennesker, der deltager i dem."\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

I sit indl\u00e6g opfordrer WVA til konkrete reformer for at genoprette tilliden og f\u00e5 initiativet "Bedre regulering" til at leve op til sit navn, herunder strengere sikkerhedsforanstaltninger mod omg\u00e5else af h\u00f8ringstrin, st\u00f8rre gennemsigtighed omkring undtagelser og konsekvensanalyser og en klar forpligtelse for Kommissionen til at vise, hvordan dens forslag afspejler de beviser og de synspunkter, som borgerne har udtrykt.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
