Public Access to Official Documents. The LFV often receives requests from the public, under the principle of public access to information held by Swedish authorities, to release information that the LFV may have in its possession. This principle is established in one of Sweden’s constitutional laws - the Freedom of the Press Act – and any information that the LFV has in its possession must be disclosed with regard to the principle unless it falls within certain exceptions, including trade secrets, or financial or commercial data that would be considered confidential under the Secrecy Act and Secrecy Ordinance. When the LFV receives such a request for the release of information that has been submitted by a design approval holder in the U.S. and covered by these Implementation Procedures, the LFV will advise the FAA of any information received from the FAA and submitted to the LFV that might be released. The LFV may also request the FAA’s assistance in determining if the person submitting the information would object to release and which portions of the information received from that person or generated by the FAA might be withheld under the secrecy exceptions, if any.
