Dear Mr Teffer,
referring to my letter of 30 May 2016, in which I informed you that you were receiving a partial
reply to your access to documents requests GestDem 2016/1933 and 2016/1938, I would now
like to provide you with a follow-up reply.

DISCLOSURE OF THE REQUESTED DOCUMENTS
In the first reply, you were given access to 22 documents. We can now grant access to ten more
documents. For the remaining 8 documents, the third-party consultations are still ongoing. You
will receive a further reply regarding these documents as soon as the third-party consultations
have been completed.
All the ten documents being released originate from third parties. I can confirm that DG Internal
Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs has consulted according to Article 4, paragraph 4 of
Regulation 1049/2001 the third parties with a view to assessing whether an exception in paragraph
1 or 2 is applicable, and has obtained their permission to release the documents.
Please note that the documents received from third parties are disclosed for information only and
cannot be re-used without the agreement of the originators, who hold a copyright on them. They do
not reflect the position of the Commission and cannot be quoted as such.
Eight of the documents being released contain personal data.
Pursuant to Article 4(1) (b) of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001, access to a document has to be
refused if its disclosure would undermine the protection of privacy and the integrity of the
