EU ETS and article 6 / COP26
Dear Secrétariat général,
pursuant to Regulation 1049/2001 on public access to EU documents, and to the amended Aarhus Regulation, I would like to be communicated all the documents relating to meetings or events involving Commissioner Timmermans, President van der Leyen, and/or their cabinets and/or officials from DG Clima and Secretariat General on the one hand and representatives of private corporations or business associations or organisations on the other, where the issues of the EU ETS, carbon markets and article 6 were discussed in relation with COP26.
More precisely my request applies to years 2020 and 2021, and includes :
- emails and mails exchanged in relation to the meetings and events,
- lists of the meetings and events, including remote (phone / video),
- policy documents, statements, position papers... shared by third party actors with the EC representatives
- notes of such meetings and events when it exists.
I prefer electronic format, but should certain documents be unavailable otherwise than in paper format, my postal address is :
Amélie Canonne
95 rue des Couronnes
75020 PARIS
France
I am obviously aware of the restrictions and limits applicable to the right to public information and documentation, however I would appreciate, should my request be denied wholly or partially, to be sent specific explanations for this denial. Also I expect the partial release of documents, in case of partial exemption according to article 4.6.
In case of denial, I reserve the right to appeal.
I am available to clarify my request if necessary and I thank you in advance.
Respectfully,
Amélie Canonne
Cher Secrétariat général de la Commission européenne,
just to clarify : the request i just sent refers to Article 6 : it is obviously in reference to the Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, and the negotiations of the rulebook regarding international cooperation on carbon markets, in the run up and in the context of COP26.
Je vous prie de croire, Monsieur/Madame, à l'assurance de mes salutations distinguées,
Amélie Canonne
Dear Madam,
Thank you for your e-mail of 20/11/2021. We hereby acknowledge receipt of
your application for access to documents, which was registered on
22/11/2021 under reference number GESTDEM 2021/7199.
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 13/12/2021. 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 (e.g. your private postal address).
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.
