Hi all, Id like to ask some questions about your experience/knowledge re Commercial Secrets If possible, pleasse reply to me offline as well davgoldberg[at]gmail.com> Thanx! Best wishes, David ================================================= 1) Where information might include "commercial secrets" does your access to information law allow the government to consult with the affected party? If so, is this consultation obligatory? 2) What happens if the third party refuses to authorize access to info it supplied to the government? 3) Does the third party have an absolute veto, or is it subject to the harm and public interest tests? 4) Is there any jurisprudence (or commissioner's decision) which show how to balance the competing rights/interests? 5) Does the ATI law, the jurisprudence, or any other law define "commercial secrets" and equivalent concepts? If so, please provide examples. If not, what is happening with the interpretation of the provision in the ATI law? Last edited by kushal; 03-09-2007 at 04:47 PM.

| Dear David, Welcome to RTI India. Hope our interaction will give us broader perspective of ATI law across the globe. Quote:
Before taking any decision under sub-section (1), the Central Public Information Officer or State Public Information Officer, as the case may be, shall take into consideration the representation made by a third party under section 11. Quote:

The ATI law does not define commercial secrets they have to treated as equivalent concepts from other IP laws |
