Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection - NGO meetings on the crisis in Libya, between 20 June 2016 to 25 July 2017

The request was partially successful.

Dear Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection,

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:

For the period between 20 June 2016 to 25 July 2017:
- a list of all meetings, regarding the crisis in Libya and its neighbourhood (including its migration, humanitarian and Mediterranean search & rescue aspects) held by the Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection with NGOs. The list should include: date, individuals attending and organisational affiliation, as well as the issues discussed;
- all minutes and other reports of these meetings;
- all correspondence, including attachments (i.e. any emails, correspondence or telephone call notes) regarding these encounters. An example would be the invitation to attend these meetings/events or any follow-up correspondence; and
- all documents prepared for the purpose of the meeting and/or exchanged during the course of the meeting. An example would be the programmes for those events, lists of attendees, or any documents NGOs might have prepared and distributed to attendees.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any doubts or question in regards to this application.

Thank you in advance.

Yours faithfully,

Erman Atak

Dear Mr. Atak,

 

We refer to your e-mail of  20 March 2020 in which you make a request for
access to documents, registered on 20 March 2020 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 15 April 2020. An extended time
limit is needed as the application concerns a very large number of
documents.

Therefore, we have to extend the time limit with 15 working days in
accordance with Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 regarding
public access to documents. The new time limit expires on 06 May 2020.

 

We apologise for this delay and for any inconvenience this may cause.

Yours sincerely,

 

European Commission ECHO

Dear Mr Atak,

 

I refer to your letter of 16 June 2020, registered on 17 June 2020, by
which you submit a confirmatory application in accordance with Article
7(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 regarding public access to European

Your confirmatory application is currently being handled. Unfortunately,

Consequently, we have to extend this period by another 15 working days in
accordance with Article 8(2) of Regulation 1049/2001. The new deadline
expires on 30 July 2020.

Yours sincerely,
