1.Any non-governmental organisation which submits a request for internal review of an administrative act or omission as referred to in Article 10 of Regulation (EC) No 1367/2006 shall provide evidence that it meets the criteria set out in Article 11(1) of that Regulation, in form of the documents listed in the Annex to this Decision.
Where any of those documents cannot be provided for reasons not attributable to the non-governmental organisation, that organisation may provide evidence in form of any other equivalent documentation.
2.Where it does not clearly appear from any of the documents referred to in points 1, 2 or 3 of the Annex that the subject matter in respect of which the request for internal review is made is covered by the objectives and activities of the non-governmental organisation, that organisation shall submit any other documentation providing evidence that this criterion is met.
3.Where it does not clearly appear from any of the documents referred to under points 1, 2 or 3 of the Annex, that the non-governmental organisation is independent and non-profit making, that organisation shall submit a declaration to that effect, signed by a person empowered to do so within the non-governmental organisation.
1.The Community institution or body concerned shall satisfy itself that the non-governmental organisation meets the criteria set out in Article 11(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1367/2006 by assessing the information provided in accordance with Articles 1 and 3 of this Decision.
2.Where, on the basis of that information, it is not possible for the Community institution or body concerned to fully assess whether the non-governmental organisation meets the criteria set out in Article 11(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1367/2006, it shall request additional documentation or information to be provided by the organisation within a reasonable period to be specified by the Community institution or body concerned. During that period, the time limits laid down in Article 10 of the Regulation shall be suspended.
3.Where relevant, the Community institution or body concerned may consult the national authorities of the non-governmental organisation’s country of registration or origin to verify and assess the information provided by that organisation.
Community institutions and bodies shall cooperate among themselves to ensure a transparent and consistent application of this Decision.
They shall exchange information as to which non-governmental organisations have been acknowledged as being entitled to make a request for internal review.
This Decision shall apply from 28 June 2007.
