Meetings with stakeholders on the review of the car emissions regulation

The request was successful.

Dear Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs,

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:

- a list of all meetings in the last year regarding the ongoing
review of legislation to reduce CO2 emissions from passenger cars

- all correspondence and minutes of meetings between DG GROW and
ACEA or members of ACEA in the last year regarding the ongoing review of legislation to reduce CO2 emissions from passenger cars

Please ensure that documents are made available as soon as they are

Dear Mr Sabido,
 
we confirm that the reply covers both correspondence with ACEA as an
organisation, and correspondence with its individual member companies.
There has been no correspondence between the companies listed and DG GROW
regarding the ongoing review of legislation to reduce CO2 emissions from
passenger cars during the time period 28.07.2014 – 28.07.2015.
 
Likewise, the reply covers both meetings with ACEA as an organisation, and
meetings with its individual member companies. As stated in the reply, one
of the meetings was with Ford Motor Company which is a member of ACEA. We
confirm that no minutes on this meeting exist.
