Position of Care France on the scandal of the interdiction of adoptions from Romania
Arun Dohle made this access to documents request to Secretariat General of the European Commission
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:
A document that contains de position of the NGO Care France related the the - in their own words - "Le Scandale de l'Interdiction de l'adoptions internationale des enfants roumains abandonnes".
We asked for such document already in 2013.
We did not get it.
The European Ombudsman did not consider our complaint about it as admissible.
However, in the meantime we have obtained the document through other sources, although not with all annexes.
Therefore, we hereby request you to make this document public.
On 29 December 2005 it was first registered by the Cabinet of Commissioner Spidla, and attributed to the Secretariat General.
The SecGen registered it on 12 January 2006, SG-2 - nr A 392.
Please provide public access to this document including its annexes and the Adonis registration sheet, and any documents related to its follow-up.
Considering the ongoing scandals and investigations into the issue of the Romanian Children File, which includes the looking into of the creation and tasking of Against Child Trafficking by the European Commission to continue the work in the spirit of the Romanian Children File - while seconding its Task Manager Roelie Post to the organisation in the Commission's best interest, we consider it in the wider public interest to make this document public.
The file, which dates back over almost two decades, holds valuable information that could tie the ongoing investigations together. It is essential to demonstrate how the earlier actions and documents, including internal briefings and responses, are part of a larger conspiracy.
Yours faithfully,
Against Child Trafficking

Dear Secretariat General of the European Commission,
We - again - insist that you provide access to this document "The scandal of Intercountry Adoption".
Historically it follows upon 'The Scandal of The OMAS contract' (2000).
And, of course, was followed by the scandal of the SERA contract, after which you killed the messenger.
You will have noticed that our requests have a certain order, a certain logic.
Hope you can connect the dots. We can.
Others can.
We have the documents anyway.
Just getting the (legal) proof of how much you cover-up this heinous lobby that works clearly in line with the US adoption lobby.
Yours faithfully,
Against Child Trafficking
