Dear Energy,
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 'Meetings about the Energy Charter Treaty'.
First of all, I am thankful for the documents I have received so far. However, in my request, I asked for documents related to the meetings listed on the commissioners calender between Maroš Šefčovič and Secretary General of the Energy Charter, Mr. Urban Rusnák, on the 10th of November 2014, the 27th February 2015, the 19th of February 2016 and on the 8th of January 2016 and to the meeting between Mr. Urban Rusnák and former EU Commissioner for Energy, Guenther Ottinger, on the 19th of June 2012. I specifically requested all communication and all documents, including agendas, minutes and list of participants.
All the documents that I have received so far seems to be communication. I would still like to receive all other documents relating to the meetings such as agendas, minutes, summaries, briefings and lists of participants. If this is not possible, a reason and legal basis for this should be provided.
Yours faithfully,
Anna Maskell
