Dear Mr Luis Miguel Hurtado Coronado,
Thank you for your e-mail of 5 April 2024 requesting access to the

2023; and

As DG Competition and the Member States involved are in the process of
establishing a public version of the decision that does not contain any
business secrets or other confidential information, no public version of
these texts is currently available. DG Competition is in the final stages
of settling this issue with a view to a quick publication.
In this regard, we would like to invite you to check the present section
of DG Competition's website regularly in order to remain aware of any
further developments. The Commission will make a non-confidential version
of the Decision available in the [1]State aid register on the Commission's
[2]competition website in the near future.
Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions.
Kind regards,
