The Commissioner for the Information of Public Importance, Rodoljub Sabic, met today with Dr Attila Peterfalvi, Parliamentary Ombudsman for Data Protection and Free Access to Information of the Republic of Hungary.    

 The Commissioner for the Information of Public Importance maintains that acting upon the recommendations from the recently published report of the experts of GRECO (Anti-corruption initiative of the SE group of states for the fight against corruption) may give a significant contribution to the fight against corruption. The Commissioner is of the opinion that it is also very good that the recommendations stress the anti-corruption potential of the Law on Free Access to Information and that they require a training of civil servants dedicated to the rights of citizens stipulated by this law, as well as informing wider public on the contents of this law.
