8By letter of 19 December 2001, the Commission rejected the applicant's application. In order to justify its refusal of access, the institution referred to the grounds of two judgments given by the Court of First Instance and, more specifically, to those contained in paragraphs 86 to 90 of the judgment in Case T-613/97 Ufex and Others v Commission [2000] ECR II-4055 and in paragraphs 67 and 68 of the judgment in Case T-191/99 Petrie and Others v Commission [2001] ECR II-3677. The Commission also invited the applicant to send her application to the Italian authorities whilst making clear that, for its part, it would have no objection to the disclosure of the letters which it had itself sent to those authorities.
