Meeting with Sinkevičius, Agractie and Nederlandse Melkveehouders Vakbond
Dear Environment,
Under the right of access to documents in the EU treaties, as developed in Regulation 1049/2001, and Regulation 1367/2006, I am requesting the following information:
All documents – including but not limited to (draft versions of) minutes, (hand-written) notes, audio recordings, verbatim reports, operational conclusions, briefings, e-mails, attachments, letters, text messages, phone call notes, (powerpoint) presentations – related to the meeting between (the cabinet of) Virginijus Sinkevičius, Agractie and De Nederlandse Melkveehouders Vakbond (NMV) that took place on the 16th of April, 2024. For the record: I would also like to receive all documents related to this meeting from before and after the 16th of April 2024, up to the current date (25th of April 2024).
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. I also kindly request you make and digital files searchable using OCR.
Yours faithfully,
Jan Daalder
