Dear Ms Douo,

Subject:           Your application for access to documents – Ref INEA
2018/29

We refer to your  e-mail  dated 10/04/2018 in which you make a request for
access to documents, registered on 11/04/2018 under the above mentioned
reference number.
You request access to all correspondence, including emails, agendas,
records of meetings, minutes of meetings, participants lists and any other
reports of such meetings between officials/representatives of INEA and
Enagas Transporte S.A.U.  between 26 April 2017 and 26 January 2018.

Your application concerns the following  documents :
•       Exchanges of email regarding Action 5.5-0054-ESFR-S-M-15 (Final
Report, Financial Statements)
•       Email from INEA regarding Action 5.5-0011-ES-S-M-17

Having examined the document requested under the provisions of Regulation
(EC) No 1049/2001 regarding public access to documents, INEA has come to
the conclusion that it may be partially disclosed. Some parts of the
document have been blanked out as their disclosure is prevented by
exceptions to the right of access laid down in Article 4 of this
Regulation. The document requested contains personal data which have been
expunged. Disclosure of these parts is prevented by the provisions of 
Article 4(1)(b) of this Regulation (protection of privacy and the
integrity of the individual of Regulation 1049/2001). The other parts of
the documents that were redacted contain commercially sensitive business
information of the company that submitted the application. Disclosure of
these parts is prevented by the provisions of Article 4(2) first indent of
the Regulation. Also, attachments that contain commercially sensitive
business information ( e.g. Final Report, Financial Statements) are not
disclosed based on the exception of  Article 4(2) first indent of the
Regulation.
Furthermore, the disclosure of the attachment concerning the draft Annex I
for Action 5.5-0011-ES-S-M-17 is refused as we came to the conclusion
that, it contains opinions for internal use as part of deliberations and
preliminary consultations within the institution concerned. Its disclosure
would seriously undermine the institution's decision-making process, even
after the decision has been taken, unless there is an overriding public
interest in disclosure(Article 4.3 of Regulation 1049/2001). The public
interest has not been demonstrated, in our opinion.

In accordance with Article 7(2) of Regulation 1049/2001, you are entitled
to make a confirmatory application requesting the Agency to review this
position.

Such a confirmatory application should be addressed within 15 working days
upon receipt of this email to the Director of INEA at the following
address:

INEA
Chaussée de Wavre 910
B-1049 Bruxelles
or by email to: [email address]

Yours faithfully,
INEA ACCESS TO DOCUMENTS
