Subject: FW: access to documents request - Return operation by frontex

Dear Ms Domínguez,

Thank you for your email and your interest in Frontex activities.

We would like to inform you that pursuant to Article 2(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2001 regarding public access to European Parliament, Council and Commission documents, the right of access to documents is granted to a citizen of the Union, and any natural or legal person residing or having its registered office in a Member State.

 

To confirm that you are invested in the right of access to the documents requested, it is necessary to provide an ID card/passport/residence permit in the EU/registration in an EU Member State (legal persons). You may however refuse to provide such document containing personal data; in that case, your request is not going to be processed.

After receiving the above mentioned documents, we will be able to start processing your request and will get back to you within 15 working days.

Please be informed of the following:

-          The person responsible for controlling the personal data (Data controller) is the Head of Legal Affairs Unit

-          The personal data is collected for the exclusive purpose of assessing the nationality of the applicant

-          The recipients of the personal data are the 3 Frontex Staff members (Senior Legal Officer, Junior Lawyer and Legal Assistant) handling requests for public access for documents

-          The personal data collected (that is, the document sent to the PAD mailbox) will be deleted as soon as the access for the request document(s) is granted or refused.  In Frontex, this procedure takes no longer than 15 or 30 working days depending on the number/size of the requested documents. During the processing of your data, you have a right to access your data and rectify them if needed. You have a right to have recourse to the European Data Protection Supervisor.

Thank you very much for your understanding.

If you will have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Kind regards,

Transparency Office

Dear European Border and Coast Guard Agency,

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:

The return operations (forced and voluntary) coordinated by Frontex in 2015, 2016 and 2017 from EU countries (I would like the list) to non EU countries (I would like the list, mainly in the Balcans).

Yours faithfully,

Belén Domínguez (EL PAIS)
