The right of the Israeli public to get information from state authorities has been based until recently only on Israeli Supreme Court rulings. In 1998, a Law of Freedom of Information was enacted. The new Law tries to follow the rulings of the Israeli Supreme Court regarding freedom of information, in establishing substantive statutory arrangements.
