Non-corrupt and professional public administration
— #59 Publication of the list of companies serving public interest obliged to disclose information to the public
State, regions and municipalities should publish (and update) lists of companies serving public interests which are obliged to provide information according to the Act on free access to information. Public information which shall be available to the general public should be provided by all companies serving public interests which dispose with public assets.
If the state and municipalities published the lists of companies ensuring services of public interest which are subject to the obligation to provide the public with the information according to the Act on Freedom of Information, it would be clear which companies are subject to the public control. This would prevent disputes about which entities are obliged to disclose information about its activities.
