Freedom of information laws by country
Et grundlæggende princip bag de fleste love om informationsfrihed er, at bevisbyrden påhviler det organ, der anmodes om oplysninger, og ikke den person, der anmoder om dem. Den person, der fremsætter anmodningen, behøver normalt ikke at give en forklaring på sine handlinger, men hvis oplysningerne ikke udleveres, skal der gives en gyldig grund til det.

A basic principle behind most freedom of information legislation is that the burden of proof falls on the body asked for information, not the person asking for it. The person making the request does not usually have to give an explanation for their actions, but if the information is not disclosed a valid reason has to be given.
