EU transparency has achieved an important victory at the European Court of Justice (ECJ). The court ruled on 22 March that the European Parliament (EP) must in principle grant access, on specific request, to documents relating to ongoing trilogues, which are informal negotiations between the EP, European Council and the European Commission.
