documents which contain the following information: Daily number of crossings from Libya by type of transport from the 1st of January 2021 to March 31st 2021. The data would have these columns "incident daily date", "Mean of transportation (rubber boat/ wooden boat/fishing boat/ fiber glass boat). "Total number of irregular migrants". Please be informed that access to the document containing information regarding these variables must be refused pursuant to Article 4(1)(a) first indent of Regulation (EC) No 1049/20011 as one operation to which these pieced of information pertain is currently ongoing, while the other operation’s evaluation is about to commence. The pieces of information pertaining to the earlier periods of the ongoing and to the concluded operation are being used for the continuous adjustment of the current operation in the same area. Thus, granting access to the information regarding these variables for the period 1 January 2021 to 31 March 2021 would jeopardize the European Union’s and Member State’s endeavours to counter and prevent cross-border crime and unauthorized border crossings. This would benefit criminal networks, enabling them to change their modus operandi and consequently result in hampering the course of the ongoing and future similar operations, and would ultimately put the life of migrants in danger. 1 Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 of 30 May 2001 regarding public access to European Parliament, Council and COMMISSION documents (OJ L 145, 31.5.2001, p. 43).
