Dear Secretariat General of the European Commission,

Under the right of access to documents in the EU treaties, as developed in Regulation 1049/2001, I am requesting documents which contain the following information:

All documentation (including but not limited to all email correspondence, attendance lists, agendas, background papers, transcripts, recordings and minutes/notes) relating to the meeting listed below:

1. Between Unilever and cabinet member of Commissioner Frans Timmermans, Helena Braun, on the 8th July 2022.

2. Between Unilever and cabinet member of Commissioner Frans Timmermans, Helena Braun, on the 18th October 2022.

3. Between Unilever and Commissioner Frans Timmermans on the 24th May 2022.

4. Between Unilever and cabinet members of Commissioner Frans Timmermans, Helena Braun and Lukas Visek, on the 25th February 2021.

I would prefer you to produce the documents on a rolling basis, rather than waiting until the full response is ready, and I would be pleased to receive an initial list of all documents as soon as possible.

Yours faithfully,
Venetia Roxburgh
