Referring to a government bill before parliament concerning the transparency of civil groups, he said that the proposal aimed at shedding light on the workings of “activist groups or agencies trying to influence the country’s policies”.

“Everybody knows what funds they use and who is behind them,” he insisted.

The government launched its survey dubbed “Let’s Stop Brussels” on April 1, sending questionnaires to the whole voter base of about 8 million people and providing a website to answer the questions.
