On July 12-19, 2011, IIFD experts monitored official websites of arbitration courts (those of Russian Federation subjects, arbitration courts of appeal, federal arbitration courts of federal districts, and the Supreme Arbitration Court). The websites were monitored according to the IIFD’s Methodology for the Monitoring of Government Bodies’ Official Websites.

Full text of the IIFD’s Methodology for the Monitoring of Government Bodies’ Official Websites is available in PDF format.

Since 2004, the IIFD performs regular monitoring of government bodies' official websites. We believe official websites of governmental bodies and bodies of local self-government to be the most efficient tool for round-the-clock access to full, timely, and reliable information on activities of these bodies. This section presents results of our research.
