Barcelona’s municipal government is working on various ways to provide citizens with greater access to information on public affairs as the basis for boosting public involvement in their management. The establishment of the Office for Transparency and Good Practices, the Ethical mailbox and the Transparency web portal are some of the actions that have been taken for that purpose. A code of conduct is also being drafted for elected officials and high-level municipal staff. In addition, work has been underway since the summer to amend the regulatory standards governing civic involvement in public affairs. The regulations being brought into effect go beyond what is required by the law on transparency, access to public information and good governance, which was passed by the Catalan Parliament in 2014.
