The problems of efficiency of regulation concerning protection of personal data in a context of making available public information is es-sential from the point of view of an individual. Since it is not difficult to imagine a situation in which public information is given and then per-sonal data are made available to an authorised person. It is an undesir-able phenomenon looking at it even by a prism of meaning of informa-tion in a contemporary world. Thus, protection of personal data re-quires taking into account contrary interests of access to public informa-tion and non-misusing an individual's right to privacy, which in the practice of application of the law can provoke problems and controver-sies.
