Release the latest communication from the EU to UK re Phorm Webwise
Steve Hankin made this Freedom of Information request to Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform
The request was refused by Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I wonder if you are able to release that most recent communication
where the UK has apparently been threatened with EU court action
over its failure to implement the ePrivacy Directive fully.
Previous letters from the European Commission in connection with
the trials of Deep Packet Inspection systems from Phorm or 121Media
have been withheld due to 'Negotiations' and I wonder, if
negotiations are now concluded, can the letters be released?
The general public has interest in seeing all the previous
communications from the EU on this matter, in addition to the most
recent letter, notifying us of proceedings against the UK where we
are being sued for inaction following the Phorm Webwise trials by
BT Retail.
I hope you will consider releasing the most recent letter and the
previous communications also.
Thank you
Yours faithfully,
Steve Hanklin
