Secondly, possibilities of access to information about creating of the Czech law regulations, their publication, interpretation and application by courts and other Czech institutions, will be displayed. The comparison of the above said with the situation in other EU Member States (Austria, Germany, Slovakia etc.) will be offered as well.
