Agendas and legislative preparatory documents (Trilogues meetings between October9th,2025 and January 8th,2026)

Response to this request is delayed. By law, European Parliament should normally have responded promptly and by (details)

(NB: this is the 23th request of disclosing trilogues documents since March23rd, 2023)
- An identical request has been submitted to the Council of the European Union)

Dear European Parliament ,

According to news agencies several legislative Trilogues meetings took place between October9th,2025 and January 8th,2026

However, no official information has yet been published by the co-legislator in their Registers of documents notwithstanding the provisions of art. 15.2 of TFEU, art 16.8 TEU and art. 11, 12 of Regulation 1049/01 and the relevant CJEU Jurisprudence (notably, Case T-540/15, T-163/21 and T-590/23).

Bearing in mind that participative democracy, as granted by art 10.3 and 11 TEU, is meaningful only if legislative transparency is granted by the co-legislator and preparatory documents are accessible in a timely manner (see Case T-163/2) I ask to disclose as soon as possible, in the public domain (eg.: on the Institution’s Register of documents and on the interinstitutional application EU LAW TRACKER -EULT), the meeting agendas and the legislative preparatory documents debated in Trilogues legislative meetings which took place between October 9th,2025 and January 8th,2026

Thanks in advance for your attention
