Глобальные принципы по национальной безопасности и права на информацию («Тсхван принципы»)

12 июня 2013 представлены Глобальные принципы по национальной безопасности и права на информацию (так называемые «Тсхван принципы»), в разработке которых приняли участие следующие организации (за исключением России):

Africa Freedom of Information Centre; African Policing Civilian Oversight Forum; Alianza Regional por la Libre Expresión e Información; Amnesty International; Article 19, the Global Campaign for Free Expression; Asian Forum for Human Rights and Development (Forum Asia); Center for National Security Studies; Central European University; Centre for Applied Legal Studies, Wits University; Centre for European Constitutionalisation and Security (CECS), University of Copenhagen, Centre for Human Rights, University of Pretoria (Tshwane); Centre for Law & Democracy; Centre for Peace and Development Initiatives;

Centre for Studies on Freedom of Expression and Access to Information, Palermo University School of Law; Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative; Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights; Institute for Defence, Security and Peace Studies; Institute for Security Studies; International Commission of Jurists; National Security Archive; Open Democracy Advice Centre; and Open Society Justice Initiative; UN, the Organization of American States and African Commission on Human and Peoples Rights, the OSCE Representative on Freedom of the Media, and the UN Special Rapporteur on Counter-Terrorism and Human Rights.

В предисловии принципов подчеркивается, что новейшая история демонстрирует защищенность интересов национальной безопасности во взаимодействии с осведомленность общественности о деятельности государства, в т.ч. предпринятой с целью национальной безопасности.

These Principles respond to the above-described longstanding challenges as well as to the fact that, in recent years, a significant number of states around the world have embarked on adopting or revising classification regimes and related laws. This trend in turn has been sparked by several developments. Perhaps most significant has been the rapid adoption of access to information laws since the fall of the Berlin Wall, with the result that, as of the date that these Principles were issued, more than 5.2 billion people in 95 countries around the world enjoy the right of access to information—at least in law, if not in practice. People in these countries are—often for the first time—grappling with the question of whether and under what circumstances information may be kept secret. Other developments contributing to an increase in proposed secrecy legislation have been government responses to terrorism or the threat of terrorism, and an interest in having secrecy regulated by law in the context of democratic transitions.
