Pessoal,

vejam que interessante o trabalho abaixo da Fundação Getúlio Vargas.

*Relatório da FGV: Estado Brasileiro e Transparência: Avaliando a aplicação
da Lei de Acesso à Informação*

Em 2011, o Brasil se tornou o 13º país da América Latina e o 91º do mundo a
promulgar uma Lei de Acesso à Informação (LAI). Dois anos e meio após a
promulgação da lei, o Programa de Transparência Pública com sede na FGV tem
buscado responder a pergunta "em que nível as entidades públicas
brasileiras cumprem suas obrigações previstas pela LAI?" O que o
cumprimento às normas pode informar sobre a necessidade de um maior
comprometimento, reformas e melhores práticas? Para responder à essas
questões, o Programa de Transparência Pública (PTP), criado a partir de uma
parceria entre a Escola de Administração Pública e de Empresas (EBAPE) e a
Escola de Direito (DIREITO RIO) da Fundação Getúlio Vargas, realizou duas
grandes auditorias de transparência passiva. Os resultados da empreitada
foram apresentados durante o seminário* Seminar, 'National Evaluation on
Governmental Transparency <http://transparencyaudit.net/node/10> *nos dias
10 e 11 de novembro.

*O relatório está disponível em português e inglês e em breve também estará
disponível em Espanhol.*

Subject: Brazil: wide variation in compliance with ATI law



*Audits on executive (federal and subnational levels) and judiciary find
wide variation in compliance with freedom of information law in Brazil*



Using procedures, definitions, and methodologies developed by the
(incipient) Transparency Audit Network, which is supported by the Open
Society Foundation Latin American Program, the Fundação Getúlio Vargas, Rio
de Janeiro, has undertaken two audits in Brazil.

A 2015 report involves two studies: the first, a large 55-question
‘General’ assessment of federal, state, and municipal compliance with
transparency statutes; and the second, a narrow-gauge 8-question assessment
of the judiciary, focusing primarily on the remuneration of judges.

The law and public administration departments at the Fundação Getúlio
Vargas, Rio de Janeiro, undertook both audits. This is the link to the 2015
report: http://www.transparencyaudit.net/node/16

*A few highlights*:

For the General Audit, which involved over 500 unique freedom of
information requests, the overall response rate was 69%, the overall
accuracy rate, 57%, and the average response time was 21 days.
The state of Rio de Janeiro and the municipality of Rio de Janeiro
exhibited an alarmingly low rate of compliance, with response rates of 27%
and 38% respectively. The situation was worse if the accuracy rates of 17%
for the state and 18% for the municipality are taken into account. A quick
reminder: Rio de Janeiro will host the Olympic Games in 2016.
Response rates of the federal branches of government, the Federal District,
and the state and municipality of São Paulo, were quite high, at
approximately 80%. Accuracy rates in these jurisdictions ranged between
62%, in the case of the municipality of São Paulo, to 76% for the Federal
Government.
A small field experiment that tested the effects of identity on
responsiveness found that non-institutional requesters obtained a response
rate 10% below the response rate for those with institutional identities
(64% vs. 74%), a remarkable difference that is statistically significant at
the 10% level. The non-institutional users also experienced much longer
response times, an average of eight days longer than institutional users
(25.5 days vs. 17.5 days). Particularly alarming, the female
non-institutional identity had a very low response rate, (57%), and an
accuracy rate of only 45%.
The aggregate results show that out of a total of 264 FOI requests targeted
at the judiciary, 160 (61%) received a response, of which only 69 (26%)
were deemed accurate according to the definition established in the
methodology.
The Freedom of Information Law establishes that a denial must occur only
under extraordinary conditions defined by law. The findings of the
qualitative assessment, however, indicate that FOI requests were repeatedly
rejected, based on excessively broad, and at times illegitimate
interpretations of the permitted legal exceptions. In other situations, the
courts hampered access by creating bureaucratic obstacles, which is
forbidden by Law 12.527/2011.
