44 7.6. Publishing the NPM’s reports “The reports of the Commissioner for Fundamental Rights shall be public. Published reports may not contain personal data, classified data, secrets protected by an Act or secrets restricted to the exercise of a profession.”146 In every case, I send my report on a visit by the NPM to the head of the place of detention concerned, the members of the Civil Consultative Body, and the Hungarian member of the CPT. I have to publish my reports on my Office’s homepage in digital format, accessible without restriction, free of charge to anyone.147 Within a few days after sending the NPM’s reports, in Hungarian, to the addressees, my colleagues make them accessible to the public, as well. 148 The NPM’s reports shall be published in the electronic archives within 30 days of its disclosure.149 Due to the lack of financial resources, I had but one opportunity so far to publish the full English text of a report on the NPM’s visit. My Office published the English translation of the summary of the reports on the NPM’s visits in 2017 on the official homepage of the NPM.150 In my report № AJB-151/2016, I requested the National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information to inquire into the lawfulness of handling the health-related data of the detainees placed in the Central Holding Facility of the MPHQoB. 146 See Section 28(2) of the Ombudsman Act 147 See Section 39(1) of Normative Instruction 3/2015.
