57In the second place, the appellant submits that the General Court erred in law in holding, in paragraphs 194 to 200 of the judgment under appeal, that (i) the provisions of Regulation No 1290/2013 and of Regulation (EU) No 1291/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2013 establishing Horizon 2020 – the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation (2014-2020) and repealing Decision No 1982/2006/EC (OJ 2013 L 347, p. 104) and the provisions of the grant agreement were sufficient to satisfy that interest since the participants in the project were obliged to disseminate the results of that project, in particular, by means of freely accessible scientific publications, that the REA carried out communication and publicity activities, for which summaries of reports could be used, (ii) the institutions, bodies, offices and agencies of the European Union and the Member States had a right of access to information, (iii) the lawfulness of the development of that project was reviewed and, lastly, (iv) the ethical and legal assessments of that project were subject to an independent ethics advisor.
