A public authority shall not allow the applicant to exercise the right to access information of public importance if the applicant is abusing the rights to access information of public importance, especially if the request is irrational, frequent, when the same or already obtained information is being requested again, or when too much information is requested. Privacy and Other Personal Rights Article 14 A public authority shall not fulfill the applicant’s right to access information of public importance if it would thereby violate the right to privacy, the right to reputation or any other right of a person that is the subject of information, except if: 1) The person has agreed; 2) Such information regards a personality, phenomenon or event of public interest, especially a holder of a state or political post, and is relevant with regard to the duties that person is performing; 3) A person has given rise to a request for information about him/her by his/her behaviour, especially regarding his/her private life. III Access Procedure before a Public Authority Request for Information, Insight, Duplication and Referral Article 15 An applicant shall submit a request in writing to a public authority to exercise the right to access information of public importance (hereinafter: request). The request shall contain the name of the public authority, the full name and surname and address of the applicant and as many specifics as possible of the sought information. The request may also contain other data that will facilitate the search for the requested information. The applicant need not list the reasons for the request. If the request does not contain data in Para 2 of this Article, i.e. if the request is deficient, the authorized person of the public authority shall be obliged to instruct the applicant free of charge how to rectify the deficiencies in the request, i.e. to give the applicant instructions on supplements. In the event the applicant does not rectify the deficiencies within a specific deadline, i.e. within 15 days upon receipt of the instructions on supplements, and the deficiencies are such that they prevent the processing of the request, the public authority shall reach a decision to dismiss the request as deficient. The public authority is obliged to allow an applicant access to information when the request is lodged orally, for the record, and such a request shall be specially recorded and deadlines apply accordingly, as if the request was submitted in written form. A public authority may prescribe a sample request form, but it shall also be obliged to review requests that have not been lodged in that form. Processing of Requests Article 16
