How to Use Public Information
Slovak state administration has not adapted itself to the needs of 21st century, neither to change of social paradigm. Act on freedom of information has not been significantly amended for ten years and the state administration has difficulties to accommodate to its philosophy. Civic society is often viewed as an enemy; it has to rely on data in very poor quality that are hard to access. Based on long term experience in gathering information from state administration Fair-Play Alliance decided to connect people with interest in radical change of state’s attitude to data and information release and together with other actors present a draft on standards of pro-active publication of data, on change of philosophy in this field and accommodation of legislative framework as well as practice to the needs of 21st century.
