Lobby meetings intra-EU investment protection

The request was partially successful.

Dear Madams & Sirs,

Under the right of access to documents in the EU treaties, as developed in Regulation 1049/2001, I am requesting

1) a list of all lobby meetings held by DG FISMA since 1 January 2019, in which intra-EU investment protection (after the termination of EU member states' intra-EU investment treaties) has been discussed. The list should include: date, Commission attendees, the name of the organisation(s) attending, and a more precise topic if that exists;

2) minutes and other notes from these meetings;

3) all correspondence between DG FISMA and lobby grops, in which intra-EU investment protection (after the termination of EU member states' intra-EU investment treaties) has been discussed (since 1 January 2019).

I would appreciate if you could take the Commission’s code of good administrative behaviour into account when dealing with the first part of this request.

Yours faithfully,

Pia Eberhardt

You have lodged your application via the AsktheEU.org website. Please note
that this is a private third-party website which has no link with any
