Introduction

While Cuba's law, which was adopted in 2024 and came into force in 2026, scores strongly on right of access and scope, the other parts of the law are weak, resulting in a fairly week overall score. Among the weaknesses are a failure to establish uniform request procedures, the lack of provision for an independent oversight body and failure to provide for sanctions and protections. The rating also refers to the implementation procedures, which are found in Part 6 of this Manual.
