Hello,
Please find attached a message concerning your request for access to
Commission documents registered under the above case number 2023/3809.
Please acknowledge the receipt of this message by return email.
Kind regards,
Dear Migration and Home Affairs,
Please pass this on to the person who reviews confirmatory applications.
I am filing the following confirmatory application with regards to my access to documents request 'Pilot projects Bulgaria and Romania'.
- You have documents that contain information on pricing of services and activities with are considered country specific proprietary information with competitive value. You say these documents cannot be "fully disclosed" because they contain commercially sensitive information of the Member State that submitted them.
- However, you have not considered the possibility of partial disclosure. I am therefore requesting a partial disclosure. For instance, this could entail redacting pricing and budgetary details.
There is an overriding public interest given the broader issues with migration, not least in light of the fact that European Commission president Von der Leyen herself highlighted these projects at her speech to the European Parliament Plenary on the preparation of the Special European Council meeting of February.
