Correspondence with Dutch authorities on media publications about misuse of CAP subsidies
Dear Agriculture and Rural Development,
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:
Internal documents by DG Agri and correspondence with the Dutch authorities between 01-05-2023 and 01-12-2023, regarding these stories in Dutch media about CAP subsidies:
- https://www.ftm.nl/artikelen/fraudezaak-...
- https://www.ftm.nl/artikelen/waterschapp...
- https://www.ftm.nl/artikelen/waterschapp...

- https://www.platform-investico.nl/artike...
- https://www.trouw.nl/duurzaamheid-econom...
- https://www.trouw.nl/duurzaamheid-econom...
- And any media stories on the same subject in the same period by De Groene Amsterdammer, De Gelderlander, Tubantia, de Stentor, Eindhovens Dagblad, Brabants Dagblad and BN DeStem.
Since the information might at least partly also concern "activities affecting or likely to affect" the "state of the elements of the environment", I believe Regulation 1367/2006 applies.
Should you encounter any difficulties in interpreting or processing my request, I am ready to discuss ways to clarify or amend it to keep the effort required on your part to the necessary minimum.
Please send me an acknowledgement of receipt for this request, as foreseen by Article 7 (1) of Regulation 1049/2001. I would appreciate it if you could send a list of documents that correspond to my request. Please note I prefer to receive the documents in digital format, not by physical mail.
Yours faithfully,
Jan Daalder
