SUMMARIES OF SELECTED STATEMENTS In addition, the Ombudsman agreed with the Prime Minister’s Office that some of the documents contained factual information which was in principle to be released to the journalist under section 28(1), first sentence, of the Access to Public Administration Files Act on the obligation to extract and grant access to certain information. However, the Ombudsman did not concur with the view of the Prime Minister’s Office that the assessment whether information was subject to extraction was to be made differently for those parts of the documents which contained speech notes than for the parts of the documents which contained background information. For this reason, the Ombudsman recommended that the Prime Minister’s Office go through the documents which contained speech notes again in order to consider whether they contained more information which was subject to section 28(1), first sentence, than the Prime Minister’s Office had at first assumed. In addition, the Ombudsman made some further comments on the extraction of information under section 28(1), first sentence, by the Prime Minister’s Office and some comments on its use of section 28(2) paragraph (2), under which there is no requirement to extract information which is also included in other documents released in response to the request for access. The Ombudsman could not criticise that the Prime Minister’s Office had denied access to various information – including information which was in principle subject to extraction – with reference to, among other provisions, section 30 paragraph (1) of the Access to Public Administration Files Act (on the private circumstances of individuals) and section 32(1) and (2) of the Act (on the realm’s foreign policy interests etc.).
