Dear Permanent Representation of Finland to the EU,

With reference to the Law on Free Access to Public Information, I would like to request the following information:

I would like to request a list of these meetings: who was present at the meeting, including the names of organisations/ lobbyists presents, as well as the date of the meeting, and the subject matter discussed.

If you wish, your request for information may be forwarded to the Ministry for Foreign Affairs for decision, in which case you will receive an appealable decision from the Ministry for Foreign Affairs.
