DG TAXUD - Access to documents
Dear Sir,
We refer to your request dated 14/07/2017 in which you make a request for access to documents, registered on 17/07/2017 under the above mentioned reference number.
Your application is currently being handled. However, we will not be in a position to complete the handling of your application within the time limit of 15 working days, which expires on 08/08/2017.
We would like to draw your attention to the fact that we received your application at a time when many colleagues take their summer holiday and that we received several wide-scope requests on the same day which fall under the remit of the same Unit.
Therefore, you will understand that an extended time limit is needed in order to complete our finding and assessment on the possibility for the public disclosure of the various documents requested.
In this context, we have to extend the time limit for a reply until 28 September. Nevertheless, we will do our very best to send you a reply before that date.
Thank you for your understanding,
Yours faithfully,
TAXUD ACCESS TO DOCUMENTS

Dear Mr. Giegold
We have received access to documents request registered under the reference 2017/4175.
The assessment of the documents identified is still on-going and we are not in a position though to finalise this assessment within the deadline of 17/12/2017. Therefore, we would like to propose you an extension of the initial deadline for delivery of our replies for both requests until 11/01/2018.
We hope you will find this proposal acceptable and we thank you in advance for your understanding.
Best regards,

Dear Mr. Giegold,
We have received your access to documents request, which has been
registered under the reference Gestem 2017/4175, and we are processing it
at the moment.
The assessment of the documents identified under your request is however
taking longer than expected and is being finalised at the moment. We are
therefore, unfortunately, not in a position to send them to you within the
deadline of 11 January 2018. We would therefore like to ask for a short
extension of the initial deadline for delivery of our replies until 23
January 2018. If we are ready in the meantime, we will dispatch them to
you immediately. We hope you will find this proposal acceptable and we
thank you in advance for your understanding.
