Abstract
The case note offers a comment on the decision of 1 July 2020 n. 7526 by the Tar Lazio regarding
the request of access to a third-party developed algorithm employed by the Italian ministry of
education for the management of the written tests in a public competition. The study contextualises
the decision in the Italian administrative case law on the so-called “buona scuola” case, which equally
deals with access requests regarding automated systems employed for public decision-making
purposes. Against this backdrop, the analysis questions the relationship between transparency and
automated administrative acts, taking into account the conflicting interests of governments’ open data
policies and of developers’ commercial confidentiality over the information regarding algorithmicbased
tools.
