Analysis

Despite the amendments made to the Right to Access Information Law issued in 2017 under Law No. 233 - issued on 7/16/2021, it was not explicitly mentioned in the text of Paragraph B of the second item that the minutes of non-confidential parliamentary committees are viewable, unlike As stipulated in Article 42 of the rules of procedure of the parliement.

Recommend­ations

Amending the article and clarifying the text for cases of prohibition.
