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 would like to request a list of all lobby meetings (including phone calls, conference calls etc) held since 1 January 2018 where a possible EU tax on plastic waste was discussed. The list should include the names of the individuals and organisations participating; the date; the agenda; and any minutes / notes produced. I would additionally like to receive any emails or other correspondence related to a possible EU tax on plastic waste received or sent since 1 January 2018.

Please provide all responses electronically via this site.

Yours faithfully,

Vicky Cann
CEO
Rue d'Edimbourg 26

Dear Madam,

Thank you for your e-mail of 07/07/2020. We hereby acknowledge receipt of
your application for access to documents, which was registered on
08/07/2020 under reference number GESTDEM 2020/4121.

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 30/07/2020. 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 (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.

For information on how we process your personal data visit our page
Privacy statement – access to documents.

Yours faithfully,
Access to Documents Team (rc)

Dear Ms Cann,

We refer to your email of 07/07/2020 in which you submit a request for
access to documents, registered on 08/07/2020 under the reference number
Gestdem 2020/4121.

Your application is currently being handled. However, we will not be in a
position to complete the handling of your application within the time
limit of 15 working days, which expires on 30/07/2020.

An extended time limit is needed, as we have not yet been able to gather
all the elements necessary to carry out a full analysis of your request
and to take a final decision.

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 20/08/2020.

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

Yours faithfully,

María OLIVÁN AVILÉS
Head of Unit
