Some relevant snippets from the ruling:

«a harmonised standard, adopted on the basis of a directive [...] forms part of EU law»

«the rule of law, which requires free access to EU law for all natural or legal persons of the European Union»

«there is an overriding public interest [...] justifying the disclosure of the requested harmonised standards»

«As is apparent [...] the Commission should have acknowledged [...] the existence of an overriding public interest»

Best, Federico
