This information includes not only inter-ministerial projects carried out by the Prime Ministers cabinet, about which one constantly needs to be informed, but also laws and regulations in effect as well as preparatory documents which must be accounted for at any time and in all areas of activity. Along with this, public authorities have continued to explore new ways, thanks to progress in technology, of facilitating citizensaccess to records of public data, at least to that which are not protected by the secret of government deliberation : administrative and jurisdictional data banks, dissemination hosts, and telematics services.
