Has bureaucracy within government really become a high-performance sport — or sometimes a bitter necessity? In the course Current Issues in Public Access to Government Information, we focus on pressing questions surrounding the Woo (Open Government Act). What is the right balance between transparency and protecting interests? When does abuse of rights occur? And how does the Woo relate to other legislation such as the GDPR or the Municipalities Act?

Under the guidance of Mr Steven Bastiaans (lawyer at Boels Zanders, specialising in Privacy Law and Public Access to Government Information), you will not only receive the latest case law and legislative updates, but also practical tools to effectively handle Woo requests. The interactive nature of this course offers plenty of opportunity to discuss your own cases.
