Kingdom of Sweden v Commission of the European Communities Case C-64/05P
Court of Justice of the European Communities
“A request by an EU member state to a Community institution not to disclose to a third party documents originating from that state and held by the institution was to be regarded not as instruction with which the institution was bound to comply but as the first step in a process of inquiry as to whether one of the exceptions to disclosure set out in the Community regulation on access to documents applied.”
