The EU Transparency Register Secretariat has suspended the registration of MCC Brussels, the Brussels-based arm of the Hungarian Mathias Corvinus Collegium (MCC), following a complaint by the activist group Corporate Europe Observatory (CEO).
The decision, communicated late on Friday June 12, comes after more than a year of correspondence and an investigation into the organisation’s compliance with the Register’s rules.
MCC Brussels, one of the rare right-leaning organisations in the Brussels bubble, has said it will appeal and described the move as a politically motivated attempt to marginalise a prominent conservative voice in the EU capital.
