A word from our team

An investigation OLAF conducted into an unnamed EU agency over a procurement contract has been identified by POLITICO as eu-LISA. This agency is currently in the news as it manages the new EU border system (which has led to long delays at airports). We can only confirm any concerns as our team has become privy to several serious accusations about the working conditions at this agency. ☹️ We will keep you posted as new information becomes available!
📰If there is a publicly documented issue you would like us to highlight to all our readers, we’d be grateful for your tip. Simply reply to this email.
