The transparency portal
Citizens’ right to transparency in the public sector and to access to information, with freedom and a fewest limitations possible, is a crucial need in the current social, political and economic context of Spain. The fact of Law 19/2013’s coming into force signals the three objectives of transparency, access to public information and good governance as means to achieve “the democratic regeneration”, the “efficiency and effectiveness of the state” and “economic growth”. In this context, business associations are subject to the obligation of active publicity, which seeks to anticipate the public’s needs and demands for information.
The CEOE wants to continue to show its absolute commitment to transparency in all aspects of its work, as it has been doing in recent years with the voluntary publication of all the information the aforementioned Law requires. To make it easier for the general public to access, and promote the availability of, information, we have brought together in a single portal all the economic, budgetary and statistical information referred to in article 8 of the Law.
