Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to examine the institutional framework of the relationship between the developer and his client in respect to the implementation of the obligation of information provision. The author is interested, in particular, in the cooperation between the local government, which is the administrator of basic public information, and the developer in the process of management of information. The author applies documentary and qualitative methods. In the framework of the first ones, a critical analysis of literature is carried out, as well as a review of legal acts, developers’ information prospect uses, and reports of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (OCCP – Polish: UOKiK). In the framework of qualitative research, questions were sent to local government offices of 50 Polish cities and the results of the responses obtained were analysed. Basing on this analysis, the author points to the imperfections of Polish legislation and their consequences for the process of information management. According to the author the existing regulations should be clarified and the local government should simplify access to information necessary for developers and their clients.
