{"id":"HUN-019","notes":"HUN-019 documents the 'silent exclusion' or 'failure to invite' pattern described in Agh (2016) and corroborated by Hungarian colleagues' accounts. No single named incident — pattern documented across multiple advisory bodies 2010-2012. Analytically significant as the earliest form of institutional exclusion from decision-making processes in the Hungarian sequence, predating KEHI audits (2013, HUN-017) and LexNGO (2017) by several years.

The exclusion was administrative in form: invitations to meetings ceased to arrive for independent organizations. No formal de-invitation or public announcement accompanied the process.","tactics":[{"code":"TC-24","role":"primary","label":"Administrative CSO Burdening","needs_review":false},{"code":"TC-35","role":"secondary","label":"Institutional CSO Exclusion","needs_review":false}],"version":1,"channels":[],"entities":[{"id":859,"name":"Orban government; relevant line ministries","role":"actor","entity_type":"State executive"},{"id":860,"name":"National Council for Sustainable Development (NFFT); independent civil society representatives on multi-stakeholder advisory bodies","role":"target","entity_type":""}],"date_text":"2010-2012","created_at":"2026-09-24T17:50:55.358311+00:00","escalation":2,"harm_track":"","narratives":[{"code":"LEGACY-N-01a512304ed6","role":"primary","label":"Administrative reorganization; no formal narrative deployed — exclusion occurred without public justification","needs_review":true}],"report_ids":[],"signal_ids":[],"updated_at":"2026-09-24T17:50:55.358311+00:00","occurred_on":null,"campaign_ids":["HUN-CAMP-004"],"enabler_type":"","response_ids":[],"trigger_type":"","campaign_phase":"","civic_response":"","date_precision":"unknown","enabler_status":"","campaigns_served":[],"consequence_category":"","institutional_consequence":"Independent CSOs lost access to policy consultation processes.
