The subject of this paper are penal solutions – embracing liability for offences, petty offences and administrative infringements – that may be used in the cases of violation of provisions on access to the environmental information under the Polish, Czech and Slovak law. First, the article’s author uses the comparative approach to analyse the development of the right to environmental information in these three legal systems. Then, he searches for answers to the question about the genesis, evolution and functioning of specific penal solutions aimed at behaviours that violate this subjective right of the members of the public, being one of the three pillars of public participation in environmental matters under the Aarhus Convention.
