PUBLIC APPEAL of the civil society organizations regarding the republishing of ANSC decisions from 18 March to 5 July with the names of the appeals counselors

On July 2, several civil society organizations published a public call requesting the National Agency for Solving Complaints (NASC) to abandon the practice of publishing its decisions without the name and surname of the three members of the complaint-solving panels, as the agency argued that such practice was meant to achieve the depersonalization of personal data. It was additionally requested of NASC to publish on its official website the order of the general director of NASC regarding the composition of the complaint-solving working panels.

Following this, in the July 8 announcement published on its official website - www.ansc.md - NASC stated that it took note of the call issued by the civil society organizations and that, beginning with that same day, the names of the decision-makers would be published on the Agency's website.

Concerning the second request of the representatives of the civil society, NASC has published on its official website, although after a long delay, the Order No. 05 of 12 February 2019 regarding the establishment of the complaint-solving panels for the period 12 February - 12 August 2019. On the same day, it published the new composition of the panels approved by Order no. 26 of July 8, 2019, regarding the composition of those panels for the period 08 July - 8 October 2019.

The signatories of the original call welcome NASC's openness and the immediate actions it took concerning the request of the civil society representatives which was meant to increase the transparency of its activity. However, in order to ensure true transparency as well as the possibility to monitor the decision-making process, including those complaint-solving decisions taken by NASC, and taking into consideration the time and resources necessary to be committed to such monitoring actions, the signatories call upon NASC to:

  • Republish on its official webpage, by 31 August 2019, all decisions taken from March 18 to July 5, 2019, with the first name and last name of the involved complaint-solving counselors.
