Abstract

Inserted in the context of the implementation of the Law of Access to Information, this work has as general objective to analyze the information requirements received by the Secretaria de Estado de Segurança Pública de Minas Gerais, during the period between July 2017 and June 2018, seeking to verify if the responses issued by the institution met the requirements and guidelines provided in the legislation and what the topics approached in the requests. Recognizing the importance of access to information held by the State for the development of social control, it is intended, through this work, to contribute to the effective application of the law and to consolidate the right of access to information and, therefore, to the improvement of the public services provided to the population. In order to carry out the analysis, the Controladoria Geral do Estado de Minas Gerais - CGE, through the Access Law, was requested to make available the requests received and the answers issued by the aforementioned institution. 139 documents were analyzed as well as the documents eventually annexed by the citizen when making his request and the documents appended by the institution when issuing his answer. It is suggested, at the end of the work, the periodic training of public servants, which aproach technical issues of the law and also their importance for social control and improvement of public services
