The Act of 6 September 2001 on access to public information is overflowing with regulations creating good practices. These regulations create access principles that organise the procedure, making it more understandable and friendly for the participants. Among this catalogue of principles, the principle of equal access to public knowledge and the principle of priority of the non-application procedure find their place. Although these principles are of equal importance, they are not always compatible. This paper aims to highlight and discuss situations in which compliance with the priority rule of the non-request procedure limits the principle of equal access to public knowledge. However, this requires a prior characterisation of these rules and a definitione of their role in the access procedure.
