Refused registration to Access to Documents requests

Política Europea de Vecindad y Negociaciones de Ampliación no tenía la información solicitada.

Dear Neighbourhood and Enlargement Negotiations,

I am requesting a copy of each Access to Documents request from 2018 and 2019 that was refused registration because the requesting person did not provide a postal address.

Please do not transfer this request to another authority, I am specifically asking for requests that were sent to you.

I am perfectly fine with the redaction of personal information.

Since my postal address is on file and there is no legal requirement for a provision of a postal address (and since the European Commission has stopped sending out physical letters in Access to Document request procedures during the pandemic anyway) please do not bother asking me again for a postal address, which yould be especially hillarious given the topic of this request, don't you think?

Yours faithfully,

Mathias Schindler

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your e-mail of 5 June 2020. We hereby acknowledge receipt of your application for access to documents, which was registered today under reference number GESTDEM 2020/3460.

In accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 regarding public access to European Parliament, Council and Commission documents, your application will be handled within 15 working days. The time limit will expire on 29 June 2020. In case this time limit needs to be extended, you will be informed in due course.

You have lodged your application via a private third-party website, which has no link with any institution of the European Union. Therefore, the European Commission cannot be held accountable for any technical issues or problems linked to the use of this system.

Please note that the private third party running the AsktheEU.org website is responsible and accountable for the processing of your personal data via that website, and not the Commission. For further information on your rights, please refer to the third party’s privacy policy.

We understand that the third party running the AsktheEU.org website usually publishes the content of applicants’ correspondence with the Commission on that website. This includes the personal data that you may have communicated to the Commission.

Similarly, the third party publishes on that website any reply that the Commission will send to the email address of the applicants generated by the AsktheEU.org website.

If you do not wish that your correspondence with the Commission is published on a private third-party website such as AsktheEU.org, you can provide us with an alternative, private e-mail address for further correspondence. In that case, the Commission will send all future electronic correspondence addressed to you only to that private address, and it will use only that private address to reply to your request. You should still remain responsible to inform the private third-party website about this change of how you wish to communicate with, and receive a reply from, the Commission.

For information on how we process your personal data visit our page Privacy statement – access to documents (https://ec.europa.eu/info/principles-and...).

Yours faithfully,

Dear Mr Schindler,

We refer to your application for access to documents registered on
08/06/2020 under the above mentioned reference number.

Your application is currently being handled. The 15 working-days time
limit for the handling of your application expires today.

However, an extended time limit is needed for the purpose of approval by
DG NEAR hierarchy.

Therefore, we have to extend the time limit with 15 working days in
accordance with Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 regarding
public access to documents. The new time limit expires on 20/07/2020.
However, we are confident that you will receive a reply shortly.

We apologise for this delay and for any inconvenience this may cause.

Yours faithfully,

According to standard operational procedure, the reply is usually also
sent to you by registered post. Please note, however, that due to the
extraordinary health and security measures currently in force during to
the COVID-19 epidemics, which include the requirement for all Commission

follow this procedure until further notice.

 

We would therefore appreciate if you could confirm receipt of the present

Thank you in advance.

 

Best regards,
