The Commissioner for Information of public importance and the protection of personal data estimates that the necessary change of the relationship of the authorities, first of all, the judicial authorities, to the obligations they in the conduct of  the Law on free access to the information of public importance and the protection of personal data.
Stressing that it is necessary to initiate and conduct more vigorously and more consistently than now, the civil or criminal proceedings against the officers and officials who do not respect the law, the Commissioner Rodoljub Sabic said the following:

"Some results achieved in the field of free access of information are largely a result of the support of media and the public to the  law and the activities of the Commissioner. However, when it comes to the protection of personal data, because of insufficient information and lack of education, the activism is practically non-existent. And that would not otherwise be bold application of the law based solely on citizen activism and media. It is necessary to operate the mechanism of accountability for those who do not respect the law and violate human rights.

It is absurd that the "efficiency" of justice confirms rapid punishing of the  head of state because of a champagne glass at a sports game, and on the other side takes little or nothing about violations of law and human rights which represent obvious violations of the law, even criminal acts. n this context, some data are very indicative.

There is still no information about what is and with what effect is the action taken on the occasion of a number of complaints by the Commissioner submitted to the competent prosecution for committing hundreds of crimes unauthorized collection of personal information and forgery in connection with registration in the special electoral lists to national minorities.

The same is true for a number of misdemeanor charges brought against ministers whose Ministries have not carried out basic obligations under the Law on Protection of Personal Data. During the past year, the authorities did not institute any proceedings for infringement of various forms of denial of information. And in that year the Commissioner has received over 2000 complaints of which represents virtually every basis for initiating misdemeanor proceedings.

It is obvious that the attitude towards the responsibilities of officials and public officials must change. The opposite position, that is the  same relationship means not only irritating message to the public, but also a conscious waiver of the beneficial effects of the consistent application of the law can give.
