Dear Mr Haday,

Please find attached a message concerning your request for access to
Commission documents registered under the above case number 2023/3407.

Please acknowledge the receipt of this message by return email.

Kind regards,

NEAR ACCDOC Team

Dear Neighbourhood and Enlargement Negotiations,

Please pass this on to the person who reviews confirmatory applications.

I am filing the following confirmatory application with regards to my access to documents request 'exchanges between DG NEAR and the Fonds Mohammed VI pour l'investissement'.

I understand the need to protect the public interest in international relations, privacy/integrity of the individual and the decision-making process, but I believe these could be preserved by suppressing the most sensitive elements in the documents, instead of denying me access to all documents apart from the fonds Mohammed VI's founding statutes (which contains no relevant information per my subject, which is the relationship between the fonds Mobammed VI and the EU).

A full history of my request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: http://www.asktheeu.org/en/request/excha...

Yours faithfully,

Antoine Hasday

Hello,

We are writing concerning your confirmatory request for access to
Commission documents for case 2023/3407 registered on 14 August 2023.

We are currently working on your confirmatory request. However, we have
not yet been able to gather all the elements necessary to carry out a full
analysis of your request. We will not be able to send you the reply within
the prescribed time limit expiring on 5 September 2023.

Because of the delays cumulated during the summer break there is a need to
extend the deadline.

need to extend this time limit by 15 additional working days.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
