He said the goal of ratifying the plan was to eradicate corruption, adding that with this plan, the maximum access of people to information and social capital and public confidence will be increased.
Explaining about the axes of the comprehensive transparency bill, the vice-president said, 'Firstly, the people has the right to know what is related to running the Affairs, especially public properties. In the second axis, every citizen has the right to access issues of his or her own, the decisions that are about him.”
