The Limitation of the Right to Public Information in the Rulings of Administrative Courts: Selected Issues

Summary/Abstract: In modern democracies, the right to public information is the basis of functioning of states and international organisations. In Poland, the right to information, as introduced in the Constitution of the Republic of Poland and regulated in the Act on Access to Public Information, provides citizens with extensive possibilities of controlling the state’s transparency. In the Act, access to public information is dened very broadly and covers almost everything that is related to the activity of public authorities. However, this right cannot be of absolute nature. For various reasons, access to public information must be limited. However, such limitations should be exceptions and cannot violate the essence of the right of access to public information, as referred to in the Constitution and the Act on Access to Public Information.
