Based on the regulations we conducted an analysis regarding the hard indicators rooted in the legislative framework and the soft indicators that are the effective communication, transparency and accessibility. Based on an analysis of the criteria, we created a matrix having a scale referring to the volume of the information content and a scale re-ferring to the effciency of the communication and to the accessibility.
