Ares(2022)6747577  (Please use this link only if you are an Ares user –

Dear Mr Kroys,

We refer to your request for access to documents, under [5]Regulation (EC)
1049/2001 ("the Regulation"), sent via email on 1 September 2022,
registered under the reference number CINEA 2022/23.

You request concerns access to all documents related to the grant decision
for project 2017-AT-TM-0001-W (Upgrading and electrification from Vienna
Stadlau to the Slovakian Border near Marchegg (bottleneck removal).
Including but not limited to the application analysis, e-mails, decision
to provide the project with the grant and Advisory Group discussions. The
request includes the grant application forms.

After analysing your request, we consider that the following documents
fall within its scope:

-        Grant application (Document 1)

-        (Technical) assessment of the application by the Internal
Evaluation Committee ('internal evaluation form') (Document 2)

-        Emails regarding the grant agreement preparation

-        Commission selection decision and its annex (Document 3)

Please note that we do not hold any documents related to the description
that you provided in your request as “Advisory Group discussions”.

Having examined the documents requested under the provisions of Regulation
(EC) No 1049/2001 regarding public access to documents, we have come to
the conclusion that:

• Document 1 and the e-mails regarding the grant agreement preparation
cannot be disclosed for the reasons explained below under point 2.
• Document 2 may be partially disclosed. The reasons for the partial
redaction of the document are explained below in point 1.
• Document 3 can be disclosed and is publicly available.

1. Document 2 may be partially disclosed. Parts of the document were
redacted for the following reasons:

Article 4(2), first indent of Regulation 1049/2001 provides that “the
institutions shall refuse access to a document where disclosure would
undermine the protection of commercial interests of a natural or legal
person, including intellectual property (…) unless there is an overriding
public interest in disclosure.”

We have redacted certain cost items and the activities not retained for
funding in document 2, as this information constitutes commercially
sensitive information for the legal entities concerned, their disclosure
being prevented by Article 4 (2), first indent.

The exception of Article 4(2), first indent of Regulation No 1049/2001
applies, unless an overriding public interest justifies disclosure of the
documents. In your request you did not evoke such a public interest, nor
could we identify an overriding public interest in this case. By redacting
certain cost items, we do not exceed the limits of what was appropriate
and necessary in the light of the protected interest of public
transparency.

2. Document 1 and the emails regarding the grant agreement preparation
cannot be disclosed for the following reasons:

Document 1 cannot be disclosed based on Article 4(2), first indent of
Regulation 1049/2001. Based on our assessment of the document, we believe
that disclosure of the grant application, would negatively affect the
commercial interests of the legal entity that submitted the grant
application. The document contains, in its entirety, commercially
sensitive technical and financial information, e.g. detailed description
of the planned activities and their estimated budget, the planning of the
implementation and the proposed methodology, as well as the business
strategies of the applicant and its business partners, the specific
know-how and experience. Additionally, it contains elements that relate to
the specific expertise of the applicant and contribute to the uniqueness
and attractiveness of the latter's application in the context of calls for
proposals. Regarding in particular to the competitive context of the call
for proposals, the information in question should be treated as of
confidential nature. Therefore, no meaningful partial disclosure is
possible.

The exception laid down in Article 4(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001
applies unless there is an overriding public interest in disclosure of the
documents. We examined whether there could be an overriding public
interest in disclosure, but that we have not been able to identify such an
interest, nor have you evoked such interest in your request.

The e-mails related to the Grant Agreement preparation cannot be disclosed
based on Article 4(3) second paragraph of Regulation 1049/2001 that
stipulates that: “Access to a document containing opinions for internal
use as part of deliberations and preliminary consultations within the
institution concerned shall be refused even after the decision has been
taken if disclosure of the document would seriously undermine the
institution's decision-making process, unless there is an overriding
public interest in disclosure.”

Emails regarding the grant agreement preparation cannot be disclosed as
they are preparatory technical exchanges and clarifications meant to
define the final text of the Grant Agreement that are part of the standard
assessment the Agency carries out during the preparation of all Grant
Agreements and cannot be disclosed as they are protected by Article 4(3)
(decision making process) of Regulation (EC) 1049/2001. In addition, these
documents contain personal data protected by Article 4(1) (b) of the
Regulation and commercially sensitive information protected by Article
4(2), first indent of Regulation 1049/2001 (see details above).

The exception provided for in Article 4 (3) of Regulation (EC) No
1049/2001 apply, unless an overriding public interest justifies disclosure
of the documents. We examined whether there could be an overriding public
interest in disclosure, but that we have not been able to identify such an
interest nor have you evoked such an interest in your request.

Please note that documents originating from third parties are disclosed to
you based on Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001. However, this disclosure is
without prejudice to the rules on intellectual property, which may limit
your right to reproduce or exploit the released documents without the
agreement of the party from which they originate, who may hold an
intellectual property right on them. CINEA does not assume any
responsibility from their reuse.

In accordance with Article 7(2) of Regulation 1049/2001, you are entitled
to make a confirmatory application as regards your request for access to
documents requesting the Agency to review this position.

Such a confirmatory application should be addressed within 15 working days
upon receipt of this email to the Director of CINEA at the following
address:

CINEA

Chaussée de Wavre 910

B-1049 Bruxelles

or by email to: [6][email address]

Dear CHONDROGIANNI Maria Eleni,

Thank you for the documents. In addition to the documents that you have sent, I also expected the application documents. I was probably not entirely clear: specifically I would like to receive the so-called Technical Description Part B (or D in previous years) of the application documents if possible.

Yours sincerely,

Dear Mr Kroys,

The application documents (including the Technical Description Part B (or
D in previous years)) were considered by us in the assessment of your

September 2022, we have referred to these documents as ‘Document 1 – Grant
application’. We have refused to grant you access to the Grant application
for the reasons explained in point 2 of our reply and repeated below for
your convenience:

The Grant application cannot be disclosed based on Article 4(2), first
indent of Regulation 1049/2001. The document contains commercially
sensitive technical and financial information, e.g. a detailed description
of the planned activities and their estimated budget, the planning of the
implementation and the proposed methodology, as well as the business
strategies of the applicant and its business partners, the specific
know-how and experience. Therefore, no meaningful partial disclosure is
possible.

The exception of Article 4(2), first indent of Regulation No 1049/2001
applies, unless an overriding public interest justifies disclosure of the
document. We could not identify an overriding public interest in this
case.

In accordance with Article 7(2) of Regulation 1049/2001, you are entitled
to make a confirmatory application as regards your request for access to
documents requesting the Agency to review this position.

Such a confirmatory application should be addressed within 15 working days
upon receipt of our reply from 30 September 2022 to the Director of CINEA
at the following address:
