He has since been serving on the Committee on Budgets and the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs. In this capacity, he served as the Parliament’s rapporteur on a 2020 scheme that linked member states’ access to the Budget of the European Union to respecting the rule of law.[2] On the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs, he also follows digital surveillance issues.[3] In 2022, he joined the Committee of Inquiry to investigate the use of Pegasus and equivalent surveillance spyware.[4][5]
