Dear Publications Office (OP),

Under the right of access to documents in the EU treaties, as developed in Regulation 1049/2001, I am requesting documents which contain the following information: How much of the material printed by the OP in 2011, 2012 and 2013 was pulped without ever being circulated?

Also, what is the estimated yearly cost of publications which go straight to the pulper?

Also, how many tonnes of paper a year does the OP buy and who are its principal suppliers?

Kindly yours,

Yours faithfully,

Andrew Rettman

Dear Mr Rettman

There are no specific documents available concerning these questions, which are therefore answered below:

a) How much of the material printed by the OP in 2011, 2012 and 2013 was pulped without ever being circulated?
In 2011, 2012 and 2013 the only cases where material printed by the OP was pulped without ever being circulated concerned material with production errors that made it unusable. Such cases represent less than 1% of the total production of the Publications Office.

b) Also, what is the estimated yearly cost of publications which go straight to the pulper?

For the limited number of production errors: if the contractor is at fault, he must provide replacement copies at no additional cost; if the fault is in the manuscript, the cost of printing corrected copies is born by the EU institution or body responsible.

The Publications Office recycles material as part of the daily operations of its Distribution centre. The total cost, for recycling packaging material as well as destocked publications, was approximately 26 000€ in 2013.

c) Also, how many tonnes of paper a year does the OP buy and who are its principal suppliers?

The vast majority of production is managed by service contracts, where paper is only one part of the package of printing and finishing services purchased.
The principal suppliers of printing services under contract 10354 are PVA GmbH; Consorzio Euredit ; Les Editions européennes SA ; Bietlot Frères Imprimerie; Imprimerie Centrale and Ragusa Grafica Moderna srl.
For its small in-house digital printing facility, where we currently handle small, urgent requests for publications, in 2013 the Publications Office bought paper costing approximately 72 000€, from the firms Inapa, XEROX and Antalis.

Yours sincerely

June Lowery-Kingston
