Contacts between Council and finance industry on MIFID

Ihre Anfrage war teilweise erfolgreich.

Dear Council of the EU,

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:

1) all the contacts, including letters and email exchanges between the Council (and bodies of the Council) AND banks and financial institutions (including: pension funds, asset management companies, trading venues, asset managers), in relation to MIFID (the Proposal for a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on markets in financial instruments repealing Directive 2004/39/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council, since 1 January 2012.

2) a list of meetings, as well as agendas and minutes of such meetings, about any meeting having taken place between the parties mentioned in 1) since 1 January 2012.

Please produce the documents on a rolling basis. At no point should the search for-or deliberations concerning-certain documents delay the production of others that have already retrieved and eligible for disclosure. In the event this application relates to a very large number of documents, we are open to confer informally with a view to finding a fair solution within the prescribed time limits.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully,

Natacha Cingotti

Postmaster Consilium, Rat der Europäischen Union
