What is an FOI Request?

Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, anyone can request recorded information held by a public authority. Authorities must respond within 20 working days.

Our Commitment

We publish every request we make, regardless of outcome. Refusals, partial disclosures, and appeals are all logged here. Accountability does not stop at the response.

Challenging Refusals

When a request is refused, we request an internal review. If still refused, we escalate to the ICO. Every refusal is tracked until final outcome.
