Dear European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF),

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:

The requested documents concern the Commission’s proposal for Regulation (EC) No 766/2008, namely the Commission Decision of 22/12/2006 COM(2006) 866 final ‘amending Council Regulation (EC) No 515/97 on mutual assistance between the administrative authorities of the Member States and cooperation between the latter and the Commission to ensure the correct application of the law on customs and agricultural matters’.

The requested documents regarding COM(2006) 866 are listed below:

1. The documents the lead service drew up in the framework of the inter-services consolations (for example meeting minutes or notes to the attention of Directors-General and other senior officials).

2. The draft text of the proposed Regulation as it stood at the very end of the inter-services consultations.

3. The document(s) setting out the opinions and recommendations of the Legal Services regarding COM(2006) 866, prior to the initiation of the written procedure to duly adopt the proposal for the Regulation.

4. The proposal of the Member of the Commission to the College to adopt the COM(2006) 866.

5. The favourable opinion of the Legal Services (or equivalent document) accompanying the proposal under (4) above.

6. Any other preparatory documents placed at the disposal of the College in the framework of COM(2006) 866.

7. A copy of the day note regarding COM(2006) 866 that was drawn up according to the Commission’s rules of procedure, which appears to be one of the documents SEC(2007)2.

8. A copy of the internal document (drawn up by the Secretariat-General) accompanying the dispatch of the day note regarding COM(2006) 866 (apparently SEC(2007 2) to the Directorates-General concerned, as prescribed by the Commission’s rules of procedure and annexes thereto.

9. The documents drawn up by the Commission services, or other concerned third parties (e.g. a Member State), and dispatched to the European Data Protection Supervisor - EDPS by the Commission services regarding COM(2006) 866, including cover letters or equivalent.

10. The internal documents (if any) drawn up by the OLAF Data Protection Officer regarding COM(2006) 866.

11. Any documents drawn up by the Commission services and dispatched to third parties other than the EDPS (e.g. Member States, Article 29 Data Protection Working Party of Directive 95/46/EC) in the framework of consultations (if any) regarding COM(2006) 866.

Yours faithfully,

Mr. Aris KOLIMATSIS

Dear European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF),

The request to OLAF pursuant to Regulation No 1049/2001 is hereby withdrawn.

The two reasons are:

- OLAF has not so far registered the application lodged on the 25/9/2013, even though seven working day have elapsed.

- It appears that the request does not fall within the ambit of article 2(1) and (2) of Commission Decision 1999/352.

I intend to shortly submit the same application to the Secretariat-General.

Yours faithfully,

Mr. Aris KOLIMATSIS
