Dear European Parliament,
Under the right of access to documents in the EU treaties, as developed in Regulation 1049/2001, I am requesting documents (including but not limited to minutes, agendas, discussions, decisions, emails, letters, etc) relating to the allegations and ongoing inquiry into the alleged misuse of expenses by former MEP Sylvie Goulard.
Yours faithfully,
Margarida da Silva

Dear Ms Da Silva,
In principle, the time limit to reply to your application A(2019)10928

consultations on your application are still ongoing, notably due to the
relatively important number of documents relevant to your request.
Therefore, Parliament feels compelled to hereby extend the time limit to

Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001.
We thank you for your understanding.
Kind regards,

Dear Ms da Silva,
The decision in reply to your application A(2019)10928 is being finalized. As the decision is liable to be appealed, Parliament needs to notify it to you with acknowledgement of receipt. Such a notification with acknowledgement of receipt is indeed the only legally sound way to determine when the time limit to appeal starts running.
Can you therefore please send your address to the functional mail box of Parliament's Transparency Unit: AccesDocs[at]europarl.europa.eu. Can you please also send us your own email address if you wish to receive updates on the parcel's progress directly in your own email box rather than on the webpage of "Ask the EU".
Your personal data will be handled in compliance with Regulation (UE) 2018/1725 and the European Parliament’s implementing measures.
Besides, your attention is drawn to the fact that you have lodged your application via the AsktheEU.org website, which is a private website not officially related to the European Parliament. Therefore, the European Parliament cannot be held accountable for any technical issues or problems linked to the use of this system.
