Juan Fernando López Aguilar sees Leggeri’s resignation as turning point in accountability for all EU agencies
The Chair of the European Parliament’s Committee on Civil Liberties (LIBE), Juan Fernando López Aguilar (S&D, Spain), took note on Monday 2 May of the resignation of Frontex Director Fabrice Leggeri, who was implicated in a report by the European Anti-Fraud Office (see EUROPE B12942A1). He said that it “sets a new reference point on accountability that will not only affect Frontex as the largest EU agency, but also all other EU agencies and specialised offices”.
