Consultation participation and their own register declarations, side by side. Counts, not judgments — participation is not influence.
Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 583 consultation files tracked so far (42,224 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.
Register facts self-declared (snapshot 2 Sept 2026); cost bands are floors. Shared files are shared attention, not evidence of coordination.

The following feedback represents the approach of the POSEIDON System's (HCMR, Greece) leading team: We welcome the initiative which addresses a very important issue. The problems listed in the inception note are significant with more characteristic in our opinion that of sustainability.
