***An active parliamentary watchdog***
The Assembly places a strong focus on governmental hearings, underlining its will to perform parliamentary control in a bilateral format as well. In each session so far, it has organised hearings of French and German ministers summoned to explain governmental action. One tangible result of such hearings was seen in May 2020, when the French and German interior ministers were questioned on border controls during the Coronavirus pandemic. Before and during the hearing, both French and German Assembly members had publicly advocated the lifting of border controls - in some cases against their own governing party. They thereby raised awareness of the negative consequences of such controls for cross-border regions and the need for cross-border cooperation in health.
