Dear Mr Rudl,

We refer to your email, registered on 20 January 2023, by which you submit
a confirmatory application in accordance with Article 7(2) of Regulation
(EC) No 1049/2001 regarding public access to European Parliament, Council
and Commission documents ("Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001"), registered
under reference number above.

Your confirmatory application is currently being handled. Unfortunately,
we have not yet been able to finalize the internal consultations needed to
carry out a  full analysis of your request and to take a  final decision.
Therefore, we are not in a  position to reply to your confirmatory request
within the prescribed time limit which expires on 10 February 2023.
Consequently, we have to extend this period by another 15 working days in
accordance with Article 8(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001. The new

We regret this additional delay and sincerely apologise for any

Dear Mr Rudl,

We are reaching out to you regarding your confirmatory application
2022/6060.

We would appreciate if you could clarify whether the purpose of your
request is to ask the Secretariat-General to perform a review of all
redacted parts in document 2 ‘Back to office report Meeting with Deutsche
Telekom, ARES(2022)849250’ in accordance with Article 8 of Regulation (EC)
No 1040/2001, or to merely seek a clarification as to whose position is
reflected in the non-redacted sentence mentioned in your application.

This clarification would enable the Commission to ensure the most
appropriate follow-up of your request. Please note that performing a
review of the initial decision by the Secretariat-General entails the
adoption of a Commission decision, which entitle applicants to institute
court proceedings against the institution and/or make a complaint to the
Ombudsman.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Kind regards,

SG Access to documents Team

you clarify the purpose of your application and, in particular, you
request a clarification on the originator of the non-redacted sentence

finding construction workers" in Document 2.

Please be informed that the abovementioned sentence reflects the author’s
understanding of views expressed by an external participant at the

commit the Commission, DG CONNECT and/or any third party referred to and
cannot be quoted as such.
