What PA ten years after the Legislative Decree 33/2013», with analysis on the possible future scenarios posed by the use and development of artificial intelligence.

Many and all of great relevance are the topics at the center of the debate, introduced and moderated by Antonio Meola, Secretary General Metropolitan City of Naples. It starts from the ten-year balance of Legislative Decree no. 33 of 2013 which introduced not only generalized access, but a new culture of transparency as a «public good» introducing widespread control of the Public Administration by citizens.

A revolution compared to the previous approach contained in law 241/90 which provided for access to documents, data and information held by a Public Administration only to subjects who had a 'direct, concrete and current' interest in the document itself. The idea of the PA as a 'glass house', transparency as an antidote to corruption finds favor with public opinion, emerged from the Tangentopoli cyclone, but must deal with the regulations on privacy and confidentiality, also of a commercial nature contained in the new Procurement Code (Legislative Decree 36/ 2023).

Today the new challenges are called 'digitization' and 'artificial intelligence': it is with them that the legislation on transparency and access must deal, not only in a European but global perspective.

The conclusions will be entrusted to the Councilor TAR Lombardy Anna Corrado, expert in the field of corruption prevention and administrative transparency, as well as author of several in-depth articles on access to documents and civic access, on the protection of privacy and public contracts, digitization and the use of artificial intelligence.
