The Freedom of Information Act came into force on January 1st 2005.
It gives you the right to ask any public body for all the information they have on any subject you choose. And unless there’s a good reason, they have to give it you within a month. You can also ask for all the personal information they hold on you.
If you're in the public sector you'll be under scrutiny as never before.
If you're in the private sector your public contracts, and much else, are open to all. You can also unearth valuable intelligence on your competitors and clients.
If you're affected Freedom of Information Ltd can help. We provide training, consultancy and research services to the public and private sectors, plus this free website.
Launched in October 2004, the site provides you with a simple guide to the Freedom of Information Act, plus an archive of news articles.
