Summary/Abstract: The article examines the institution of the European Ombudsman, which embodies an independently functioning mechanism for public control. „Soft” supervision guides the standard in terms of access to information, as well as ensuring transparency in the EU‘s decision-making process. After reviewing the basic legal norms in this direction, actions related to access to documents and information in the EU are analyzed. Attention was also drawn to the European Ombudsman‘s own-initiative inquiries. The mechanism of influence in relation to the detected cases of bad management and protection of the right to good administration is studied.
