By decision no. 8926 of 19 June 2013 of the SAC, Fifth Division on administrative case no. 11623/2012, judge-rapporteur Iliana Slavovska (in Bulgarian), the Supreme Administrative Court repealed a first instance court decision, as well as the Chairperson of the Municipal Council of Varna refusal to provide information on the amount of remunerations received as supplementary remuneration (bonuses) by the managers and supervisors of the municipal companies in Varna.

 

The court held that the information is regarding the amounts of funds received by municipality-owned companies and that it will give the opportunity to form one’s opinion on the way of spending municipal funds which is not personal data of the persons who received those funds.
