Sustainable Apparel Coalition

Klärung der Anfrage wird erwartet. Wenn Sie Michael Veale sind, bitte Anmelden um eine Nachfrage zu senden.

Dear Research and Innovation (RTD),

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 communication between DG RTD and the secretariat/members of the Sustainable Apparel Coalition.
2) Internal reports, minutes and communications on sustainable apparel supply chains, the Sustainable Apparel Coalition, and the Higg Index (since 2009).
3) Internal reports on sustainable apparel/textiles innovation.

Yours faithfully,

Michael Veale

Dear Mr Veale,

 

We refer to your email of  20 June 2013, in which you submit a request for
access to all documents concerning:

 

1.      "all communication between DG RTD and the secretariat/members of

            the Sustainable Apparel Coalition.

2.       Internal reports, minutes and communications on sustainable
apparel supply chains, the Sustainable Apparel Coalition, and the Higg
Index (since 2009).

3.      Internal reports on sustainable apparel/textiles innovation."

 

After a careful review of your application, we regret to inform you that
our DG is not able to process your request with its current scope.

 

This is indeed a very broadly formulated request, which would require
extensive searches on different locations. It is not really feasable to
retrieve documents on these criteria. In particular, for a significant
part of the period covered by your request, there is no central electronic
archiving of correspondence. Therefore, searches in paper files would be
necessary, which would be very labour-intensive and time consuming.

 

Consequently, we are unable to handle your request in its present form. We
would kindly ask you to make a more targeted request.

 

Yours sincerely,  

 

 

Silvia BOJINOVA

Head of Unit

3.      Internal reports on sustainable apparel/textiles innovation."

 

Following our request for clarifications sent via email on 20 June, you
have kindly attempted to narrow the scope of your application for access
to documents as follows:

 

1.      "all communication between DG RTD and the secretariat/members of

            the Sustainable Apparel Coalition.

2.       Internal reports, minutes and communications on sustainable
apparel supply chains, the Sustainable Apparel Coalition, and the Higg
Index (since 2009).

 

After a careful review of your application, we regret to inform you that
our DG is still not able to process your request with its current scope.

 

This is indeed a very broadly formulated request, which would require
extensive searches on different locations. It is not really feasable to

part of the period covered by your request, there is no central electronic

Consequently, we are unable to handle your request in its present form. We
would kindly ask you to make a more targeted request and provide us with
more detailed information on the documents which you seek to obtain, such
as references, specific dates and titles etc.

We thank you very much in advance for your kind understanding.

 

Yours sincerely,
