Echo der Zeit broadcast a debate on lobbying on March 21, 2014.
National Councillor Lukas Reimann and Walter Stüdeli were present in the studio and our overlap on lobbying issues is greater than expected.
Lukas Reimann said that members of parliament are also lobbyists.
I did not disagree.
I also find his examples of high contributions for two meetings offensive.
But solving this is a task for Parliament.
The Public Affairs Society has done its homework and issued rules of professional conduct.
These stipulate that employers and clients must be made transparent.
An important step in the right direction.
