Summary/Abstract: The right of access to information is the right of the new generation in the Republic of Croatia. It is covered by Art. 38 of the Croatian Constitution (Official Gazette 85/2010) which guarantees freedom of thought and expression and which includes the freedom of the press and other media of communication, freedom of speech and public expression, and free establishment of all institutions of public communication. The right of access to information has been declared in constitutional law and it has precisely regulated its scope and possible limitations. In this way, it is strengthening the transparency and legitimacy of the actions of public authorities, as well as control over it. The aim of this paper is to determine the legislative framework governing the right of access to information and to point to the question of how the legal protection of the right of access to information is regulated.
