Following  an  examination  of  the  above  documents  identified  as  falling  under  your  request, 
pursuant  to  the  provisions  of  Article  4  (1)  (b)  of  Regulation  (EC)  No  1049/2001,  access  to  a 
document has to be refused if its disclosure would undermine the protection of privacy and the 
integrity of the individual, in particular in accordance with Community legislation regarding the 
protection  of  personal  data.  The  applicable  legislation  in  this  field  is  Regulation  (EC)  No 
45/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2000 on the protection 
of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data by the Community institutions and 
bodies and on the free movement of such data.  
When access is requested to documents containing personal data, Regulation (EC) No 45/2001 
becomes fully applicable. According to Article 8(b) of this Regulation, personal data shall only 
be transferred to recipients if they establish the necessity of having the data transferred to them 
and if there is no reason to assume that the legitimate rights of the persons concerned might be 
prejudiced. 
We consider that, with the information available, the necessity of disclosing the aforementioned 
personal  data  to  you  has  not  been  established  and/or  that  it  cannot  be  assumed  that  such 
disclosure would not prejudice the legitimate rights of the persons concerned. Therefore, we are 
disclosing the documents listed above expunged from this personal data. 

 


Furthermore, we would like to specify that document 9, point 5, second dash, contained a clerical 
mistake thus it has been corrected. 
Kindly note that you may reuse the documents requested free of charge for non-commercial and 
commercial purposes provided that the source is acknowledged and that you do not distort the 
original meaning or message of the document/documents. Please note that the Commission does 
not assume any liability stemming from the reuse. 
In case you would disagree with the assessment that the expunged data are personal data which 
can only be disclosed if such disclosure is legitimate under the rules of personal data protection, 
you  are  entitled,  in  accordance  with  Article  7(2)  of  Regulation  1049/2001,  to  make  a 
confirmatory application requesting the Commission to review this position. 
Such a confirmatory application should be addressed within 15 working days upon receipt of this 
letter to the Secretary-General of the Commission at the following address:
