The article considers the problematic issues of bringing to administrative responsibility Ukrainiancustoms officials for violation of customs subjects’ information rights. The consequences ofnon-fulfilment and/or improper fulfilment of the Customs Code of Ukraine on advising on thepractical application of certain provisions of customs legislation, as well as on the improperproviding of information on customs rules to interested persons are analyzed. The grounds andpossibilities of bringing to administrative responsibility for violation of the procedure of customsconsulting and informing by customs authorities are compared. The legal provisions on suchliability are compared, depending on whose right (individuals or legal entities) to informationhas been violated by customs officials. The procedural features of bringing customs officers tosuch responsibility are analyzed, including the factors that complicate or make it impossible tobring them to justice. The author concludes that it is actually impossible to bring customs officialsto administrative responsibility for failure to provide customs advice, if it is initiated by a legal entity. These legal relations do not belong to the scope of the Law of Ukraine “On Citizens’Appeals”. It is emphasized the possibility of applying administrative penalties to customs officialsonly for violation of provisions of the Law of Ukraine “On Access to Public Information” inthe context of informing about customs rules. Based on the analysis of statistics, a conclusionabout the inefficiency of the entities authorized to draw up protocols on administrative offensesunder Article 212-3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of Ukraine is made. The reasons ofthe inefficiency are the small number of such entities compared to the number of offenses, lackof prompt response for notification of violations, complicated procedure for such response, etc.The author proves the invalidity of some provisions of the Customs Code on the responsibility ofcustoms officials and suggests ways to solve this problem.

Nowadays the mobile devices have become a more vital requisite and very crucial portion of our lives daily routine. The sudden call termination that happens unexpectedly (call drops) is a circumstance were the enduring calls get cut without any prior indication. The evolution of the services associated with the 3G and the 4G based on the voice and the data has ended up in high conflicts between the companies of the telecommunication to increase the consumer rate leading to major occurrence of the termination in the calls. Such abrupt un-notified call cessation still remains as an unanswered question in the telecommunication industry all over the world. Manifold measures and the researches put forth to devise the solution to the issue of un-notified call cessation for the mobile radio access networks were not successful as every methodology had its own advantages and as well as disadvantages. The laid out research made efforts to discover the reasons that for this un-notified sudden termination of calls, and examines the problem related with the termination of calls in each phase of the radio technology and puts forth the Self Organizing Network in the LTE for minimizing the factors that are related to the call termination and enhances the quality of the voice calls. Further brings down the expenses on the capital and the operations on terms of structural and the configuration attributes.

The Right

The article focuses on the violation of the right to public information’s access as a constituent of the constitutional right of a person and citizen to information. It is substantiated on the basis of received empirical data that in practice there are cases, where officials of public authorities, who are the stewards of public information, provide inaccurate / incomplete information, in connection with which there is a need for an adequate response to the offense. Attention is drawn to the fact that the provision of inaccurate information by public information’s stewards is one of the most complex problematic aspects for a number of reasons, in particular because of the complexity of verifying the information provided to the requester; the absence of possibility of proving intentionality in the actions of public information’s stewards; the complexity of the prosecution of authorized officials. Failure to provide information, unlawful refusal to provide information, untimely or incomplete provision of information, provision of false information is qualified by the current legislation as an administrative offense, which has the effect of bringing to justice. The legal regulation is revealed and the procedure for bringing officials to administrative liability for violations of the right to public information’s access is studied. The participation of the Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights in this process is being researched. It is concluded that, in practice, in regard to normative and legal regulation of the right to public information’s access, the main array of problematic aspects is concentrated mainly not in the legal part, but in the part of strict compliance with the requirements and provisions of the current legislation by the officials, who are the stewards of public information. The procedure for bringing to administrative liability for giving false / incomplete information is institutionally quite simple and effective. However, there is no need to mention that there is an objective need to do a thorough job on changing the approach and, above all, the attitude of public officials to the population; the need to develop and cultivate respect for the individual as the highest social value in the state and maintain a high flawless image, which, among other things, will help to restore public confidence in the state, its agencies and officials.

Patent Applications

Firms face a trade-off between patenting, thereby disclosing innovation, and secrecy. We show that this trade-off interacts with firms’ financing choices. As a shock to innovation disclosure, we study the American Inventor’s Protection Act that made firms’ patent applications public 18 months after filing, rather than when granted. We find that such increased innovation disclosure helps firms switch lenders, resulting in lower cost of debt, and facilitates their access to syndicated-loan and public capital markets. Our evidence lends support to the idea that public-information provision through patents and private information in financial relationships are substitutes, and that innovation disclosure makes credit markets more contestable.

Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic is an international public health crisis without precedent in the last century. The novelty and rapid spread of the virus have added a new urgency to the availability and distribution of reliable information to help curb its fatal potential. As seasoned and trusted purveyors of reliable public information, librarians have attempted to respond to the “infodemic” of fake news, disinformation, and propaganda with a variety of strategies, but the COVID-19 pandemic presents a unique challenge because of the deadly stakes involved. The seriousness of the current situation requires that librarians and associated professionals re-evaluate the ethical basis of their approach to information provision to counter the growing prominence of conspiracy theories in the public sphere and official decision making. This paper analyzes the conspiracy mindset and specific COVID-19 conspiracy theories in discussing how libraries might address the problems of truth and untruth in ethically sound ways. As a contribution to the re-evaluation we propose, the paper presents an ethical framework based on alethic rights—or rights to truth—as conceived by Italian philosopher Franca D’Agostini and how these might inform professional approaches that support personal safety, open knowledge, and social justice.

The Media

It has long been noticed that the problem of public information provision has shifted from collecting and selling information to protecting the public from disinformation, and to inability to follow all the information published about any topic. Media coverage in times of crisis, such as the pandemic, has revealed and heightened the extent of the problem of public information provision. In this paper, we present our belief that professional journalists have not responded well to their basic task — providing accurate, impartial, reliable and important information to the public. Instead, the media has often published information based on assumptions, emotions and views of interest to certain social groups, rather than the general public. The banning of large gatherings and events that are a common source of information, limited movement of people and journalists, focus on official sources with limited ability for data verification, extensive use of social media and general disruption of daily editorial routines, have led to the non-compliance with the core principles of journalism. Instead of facts, the media were dominated by interpretations and emotions, which, in combination with poor general media literacy, has led to the spread of fear and distrust in media and institutions. In this paper, we advocate adherence to the Guidelines of the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe on protecting freedom of expression and information in times of crisis (adopted in 2007), and improvement in general media literacy in society, so that the media can effectively perform their social role, and the citizens can critically evaluate information available in times of crisis.
