Reports on Transparency in the European Union The Secret State of EU Transparency Reforms This report came out of Access Info's litigation with the Council of the European Union at the General Court of the EU (Case T-233/09). We had asked for documents showing what was being debated during the reform process of EU Regulation 1049/2001 on access to Parliament, Council and Commission documents. The Council replied giving us some information, but nothing that would allow us to identify who was saying what behind the Brussels doors. So we set about asking each EU Member State instead.

It grants members of the public and legal entities the right to access documents held, transmitted or received by the EU institutions.

proposed amendments to EU access to docs regulation

Helen Darbishire2020-01-29T11:16:45+01:00

Proposed Amendments to EU Access to Documents Regulation 1049/2001 In 2008, after a relatively short seven years of application during which the European Commission lost a number of key cases overturning its refusals to grant access to documents, it proposed a complete recasting of the Regulation 1049/2001. The justifications for this include bringing it into line with the Lisbon Treaty which expands the scope of the regulation to apply to all EU institutions and all requesters. Another reason given by the Commission is the need to incorporate the provisions of the Aarhus Convention on access to environmental information into the
