In the current paper are presented thedefinitions for subjects of the right of reuse of public sector information for commercial and noncommercial purposes and the application of the definitions regarding the court practice.
The scope of the subjects of the right of reuse of public sector information in the legal acts, European and Bulgarian, aims to reach all private entities. The legal regulation of the subjects of the right of reuse of public sector information does not tightens the circle of the subjects of this right. This concept reaches its goals, since the court practice leaves the question for the legal subjects aside in its decisions.
The only limitation in the scope of the legal subjects is in the case when a special legal act prevails the application of the Access to information act. In this situation, the public sector information should be asked according the procedures in the special act and not the Access to information act.
