 Council v Hautala & Ors (Law governing the institutions) [2001] EUECJ C-353/99 (06 December 2001)
According to Ms Hautala, the same conclusion follows from the obligation to interpret Community law in the light of the general principles of Community law, which include the principle of the right to information.
Ms Hautala and the Danish, United Kingdom, Finnish and Swedish Governments contend that the obligation to grant partial access to Council documents also derives from the principle that exceptions to a general rule must be interpreted strictly, and from the principle of proportionality.
Finally, according to Ms Hautala, even if Decision 93/731 does not require the Council to consider partial access, that requirement follows directly from the fundamental principle of Community law that citizens of the European Union must be given the widest and fullest possible access to documents of the institutions of the Union.

So, for example, a performance of the leader of the "Greens" faction at the Finnish parliament, Heidi Hautala, on the flourish of trumpets on June 2 on the occasion of a century of the existence of the Finnish parliamentary democracy became a real scandal.
He with enthusiasm fulminated against the thesis of Hautala about the sameness of the regime of Putin and the tzarist regime in Russia in the beginning of the 20th century.
Everything is extremely clear – the political elite of the small country, having gathered for modest celebration of the centenary of democracy, could not and had not wished to find in itself force for criticism of "the big neighbour".

The committee also followed Heidi Hautala's recommendation that once the timetable for sulphur is set, the question should not be reopened at the next review of fuel quality, which the Commission has proposed for 2006 although the parliamentary committee wants 2005.
The committee's amendments also call on the EU to consider imposing limits on phosphorus and silicon in gasoline during the next review, and should look at alternative fuels, such as bio diesel, LPG and compressed natural gas.
The environment committee also voted to align the timetable for fuel standards for road and non-road vehicles, which Hautala said would pose a problem for the Council of Ministers, with which it has equal say on the dossier.

 EU fuels directive leader slams biofuel mandates - Heidi Hautala - Brief Article Diesel Fuel News - Find Articles
Brussels -- The biofuel mandate now being considered by the European Commission is the result of intense lobbying by the biofuel industry and is not based on sound environmental science, said Heidi Hautala, the official fuels directive rapporteur and member of the European Parliament.
The EC should reconsider its biofuel mandate that calls for 2% of the fuel supply to be biofuels by 2005 and 5.75% by 2010, Hautala told attendees of the Hart World Fuels Conference here.
This regional split on the issue mirrors that of the U.S. where Midwestern states are pitted against Northeast and West Coast states over the ethanol mandate contained in the U.S. Senate energy bill.

After a debate between EU agencies, responsibility will likely fall on equipment makers to take care of their own products -- a system which, for example, Nokia and Sweden's Electrolux have promoted, European parliament member Heidi Hautala said.
While the new EU-wide regulation will likely oblige individual firms to see that their own new products are recycled, the industry would be collectively responsible for phones sold before the legislation enters into force, Hautala said.
It would be up to individual member states to set up phone recycling systems and ensure that people actually bring their phones back to stores or other places to be recycled.
