Council of Europe urged to recognise broad right of access to information

Through this Briefing, ARTICLE 19 and the Open Society Justice Initiative, as organisations with observer status at the Council of Europe’s Group of Specialists on access to official documents (DH-S-AC), together with Access Info Europe, seek to make a constructive contribution to the process of drafting a binding treaty in the area of access to information.
