57The aim of Regulation No 1049/2001 is to give the public a right of access to documents of the institutions of the European Union which is as wide as possible. It is also apparent from that regulation, in particular from Article 4 thereof, which lays down a system of exceptions in that regard, that that right is, nevertheless, subject to certain limits based on reasons of public or private interest (see judgments in LPN and Finland v Commission, C‑514/11 P and C‑605/11 P, EU:C:2013:738, paragraph 40 and case-law cited, and Commission v EnBW, C‑365/12 P, EU:C:2014:112, paragraph 61 and case-law cited).
