Declaration of Interests of Mr. Arias Cañete

La solicitud fue parcialmente exitosa.

Dear European Council,

On October First, Miguel Arias Cañete said[1]: "Neither I nor my direct family have some link with these companies", talking about Petrolíferas Ducar and Petrologis Canarias.

However his son, Miguel Arias Domecq, still appears today as a Counselor of Petrologis in the Spanish Company Register[2].

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

Any documentation presented by Mr. Arias Cañete to justify his Declaration of Interests and, in particular, any document related to the resignation of his son in Petrologis.

Yours faithfully,

Eva Belmonte

Dear Registre,

Thank you very much for the answer, but in the documents that you sent I cannot obtain the information I was looking for. I will appreciate that you answer the following questions:

- Has Mr. Cañete presented some kind of document to prove to the Comission that his son is no longer a board member of Petrologis Canarias, S.L.?

- Could I know the reasons of the 5 votes against the verification and the 3 abstentions reflected in the Minutes?

Yours sincerely,

Eva Belmonte

Dear Ms. Belmonte,

In reply to your request of 12 November please find attached the relevant document. As regards the question concerning the explanation for the votes, this information does not exist as the vote was not taken by roll call, but by a show of hands; in consequence the name of the Members voting in favor/against/abstention was not recorded.

We hope this replies to your questions. Best regards
