Access to information concerning Jewish cemeteries and sites of Holocaust-related martyrdom. The applicant sought information from a Jewish religious community on the location and funding of Jewish cemeteries, invoking their historical link to antisemitic persecution and public oversight. The court dismissed the complaint, holding that despite their cultural and historical significance, religious communities maintaining Jewish cemeteries do not perform public tasks and are not subject to public-information duties absent proven use of public funds.
