Dear Secretariat General of the European Commission,

Under the right of access to documents in the EU treaties, as developed in Regulation 1049/2001, I am requesting the following documents related to the revision of the general pharmaceutical legislation and the ambient air quality directives (AAQD) Fitness Check which we believe are held by the Regulatory Scrutiny Board (RSB) Secretariat.

Revision of the general pharmaceutical legislation

1. The first draft of the general pharmaceutical legislation impact assessment report, submitted on 22 June 2023 by DG SANTE to the RSB (and issued a negative opinion).
2. The revised draft of the general pharmaceutical legislation impact assessment report, submitted on 28 Oct 2022 by DG SANTE to the RSB (and issued a positive opinion with reservations).
3. Additional information circulated in the context of this RSB review, and noted in the first RSB opinion (summarising the 19 July 2022 RSB meeting):
(a) The ‘additional information provided [by DG SANTE] in advance of the meeting’ on 19 July 2022.
(b) Additional, the ‘more technical comments […] sent directly to the author DG’ by the RSB.
4. Any documentation DG SG holds regarding the Inter-service consultation for the revised general pharmaceutical legislation.
5. Minutes of all inter-service steering group meetings which informed the revision of the general pharmaceutical legislation.

Fitness Check of the EU Ambient Air Quality Directives

1. The first draft of the Fitness Check report, discussed by the RSB on 17 July 2019 (and issued a negative opinion).
2. The revised draft of the Fitness Check report, submitted on 16 August 2019 to the RSB (and issued a positive opinion).
3. Any documentation DG SG holds regarding the Inter-service consultation for the AAQD Fitness Check
4. Minutes of all inter-service steering group meetings which informed the revision of the AAQD Fitness Check

Please do not hesitate to let me know if you require any clarification regarding the above. If any of these documents are held only by the respective DGs (and not SecGen), I would greatly appreciate if you could flag this so I can request them separately. Many thanks in advance for your help.

Your sincerely,
Dr Kathrin Lauber
