The group has spent eight months submitting requests to political institutions for information relevant to the fight against corruption.

This drive by MANS has found that some state institutions are still forbidding access to public documents. All requests made to the Agency for National Security, for example, were refused. However the Administrative Court has overturned the agency’s decision not to reveal how many people it employs. Other requests made by MANS, but refused by the agency, are also under review by the court, including a request for the number of persons under surveillance by the agency. The courts’ decisions are expected in the near future.
