Under the right of access to documents in the EU treaties, as developed in Regulation 1049/2001, I hereby request access to a copy of the document(s) containing the observations submitted to the Court of Justice of the European Union in the case of Luxembourg Business Registers (Joined Cases WM C-37/20 and Sovim SA C-601/20) by the governments of Austria, Finland, Luxembourg, and Norway, as held by the European Commission.

Dear Ms Darbishire,
We refer to your above-referenced request for access to documents under
Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 regarding public access to European
Parliament, Council and Commission documents (OJ L 145, 31.05.2001, pages
43).
Your request is currently being handled. However, in view of the number
and nature of the requests for access to documents the Legal Service is
dealing with, we will not be in a position to complete the processing of
your request within the time limit of 15 working days, which expires
tomorrow, 4 January 2023. Furthermore, your request concerns documents of
which the Commission is not the author. According to Article 4(4) of
Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001, the Commission has to consult the third
parties from which the documents originate. This consultation procedure is
still ongoing.
For these reasons, this time-limit will be extended by 15 working days, in
accordance with Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001, to expire on
25 January 2023.
Thank you for your understanding.
Yours sincerely,
Access to Documents team
