On 11 July 2002 the Courrier Citoyen d'Europe of the EU Parliament informed me about the possibility to access documents according to Act of 25 May 1976 on administrative procedure (Article 29 of the Verwaltungsverfahrensgesetz): http://wkeim.bplaced.net/files/020711eu.htm.

As activist I tried this:

The good news is that I could see the files of the ministry of interior and the federal parliament 19. October 2004 http://home.online.no/~wkeim/files/vg-entwurf-en.htm as part of Case VG 2 A 85.04: Walter Keim vs. Federal Republic of Germany http://wkeim.bplaced.net/files/verwaltungsgericht-en.htm.

The bad news is that I lost the case and have to pay € 770.- for 15 copies and having asked for a fair answer within reasonable time: http://wkeim.bplaced.net/files/vg-051112-en.htm
