Transparency
The joint Decree and Ordinance of 16 May 2019 of the Brussels-Capital Region, the Joint Community Commission and the French Community Commission with regard to the publicity of administration in institutions of the Brussels-Capital Region (FR) aims to increase the transparency of administration by facilitating access to administrative documents and environmental information.
More specifically, this means that the Government of the Brussels-Capital Region is required to publish a number of documents for the general public on its website.
- the composition of the Cabinets of the Members of the Government of the Brussels-Capital Region (click on the name of each member of the Government to access the composition of the ministerial Cabinets);
- the agendas and decisions of the Council of Ministers of the Brussels-Capital Region;
- reporting on the state of the Brussels environment (FR);
- the register of protected heritage (FR).
The Government of the Brussels-Capital Region is composed of a Minister-President (French-speaking) and four Ministers (two French-speaking and two Dutch-speaking) elected by the Parliament of the Brussels-Capital Region.
In addition, on the proposal of the Government, Parliament elected three regional Secretaries of State, one of whom is Dutch-speaking. The latter are not members of the Government, but attend all or some of its meetings. They are deputies to a member of the government who has defined their functions.
The members of the Government are responsible for matters defined by the regional competences: urban development, planning, urban renewal, housing, public works, transport, economic policy, foreign trade, employment, environmental protection, energy, local authorities, scientific research and international relations.
