The Administrative Court dismissed the applicant's request for access to insurance company files regarding his minor children. The insurance company refused access, arguing that releasing documents containing private therapy records could endanger the children's medical treatment and violate their best interests. The court upheld this refusal, ruling that the potential harm to the children's health outweighed the general principle of public access to administrative documents.

A oli lastensa toisena huoltajana pyytänyt Kansaneläkelaitoksen vakuutuspiiriltä kaikki alaikäisiä lapsiaan koskevat sen hallussa olevat asiakirjat.

Vakuutuspiiri oli hylännyt tietopyynnön katsoen, että pyydettyjen asiakirjojen luovuttaminen voisi johtaa lääkärinlausunnoissa suositellun hoidon vaarantumiseen, mikä olisi lasten edun vastaista. Asiakirjoista ilmenikin, ettei A ollut hyväksynyt yksityisen terapian antamista lapsilleen.
