Citizens can request public information from Basque administration within 30 days

The Law 3/2026 adds an additional provision to Law 1/2012 on access to information, allowing citizens to request public data from Basque administration. This right is regulated under articles 10.2, 6 and 24 of the Organization Statute of Administration, and is published in the BOPV on 25 May 2026. The time limit for submitting a request is 30 days from the date of knowledge of the requested information.

In 2 key points

  1. Citizens can demand access to public information within 30 days (disposición adicional 7 a la Ley 1/2012)
  2. The regulation is based on Articles 10.2, 6 and 24 of the Statute of Organisation (art. 10.2, 6 y 24 del Estatuto)

How it affects those involved

Citizens can now request public information more directly and within a clear timeframe. Basque administrations must respond within 30 days, enhancing transparency. Advisors and organisational representatives must inform their clients about this new right and the application process. Administrations must update their procedures to manage data access requests.
