Public Interest

Public interest is in many legal systems of different countries so called vague legal term. Its content is often inferred and usually it is found within a specific administative procedures, because at least some of them may consist in the need for comparing and balancing several public interests, such as interest in the protection of nature versus public transport conservation.

It should always be an interest of significant majority of the members of the society (citizens of the city, country, state, etc.).
