Wijziging van de Wet openbaarheid van bestuur in verband met aanvullingen ter voorkoming van misbruik
This Dutch legislative procedure proposes changes to the Wet openbaarheid van bestuur (Woo), the Dutch law giving the public a right to access government-held information. The amendment adds provisions intended to prevent misuse of this right. Based on the title alone, the exact nature of the safeguards cannot be confirmed; this summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text. Citizens, journalists, and organisations that request government documents under the Woo could be affected, as could Dutch public bodies that handle such requests. The precise changes to request procedures or grounds for refusal are not stated in the metadata.
