The Protector of Citizens determined that the Republic Geodetic Authority (RGA) acted improperly and illegally when it prevented independent geodetic organizations from accessing the e-desk and e-cadastre, even though it did not fulfill its obligation to decide on their complaints.

The Protector of Citizens, after receiving several complaints from geodetic organizations that the RGA terminated their access to the e-desk and e-cadastre without any announcement or explanation, launched a control investigation into the regularity and legality of work of the RGA in January 2022.

In the control investigation, the Protector of Citizens determined that the RGA acted against the law because it violated the complainants' right to a legal remedy and prevented their work before deciding on the appeals.

The Protector of Citizens stated in the recommendations for eliminating the shortcomings that the RGA should without delay provide complainants, who have been issued with decisions on cancellation and deletion from the records, with access to the e-desk and e-cadastre, until the decisions on cancellation and deletion from the records become enforceable.
