The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) will have a profound effect on the public and private sectors alike, and provides citizens, companies, journalists and campaigners with a powerful new tool. Since 1st January 2005 everyone has, for the first time, a legal right of access to information held by over 100,000 public bodies. The Act is retrospective, so applies to historical documentation as well as that generated since it was enacted. For more details, follow the menu on the left.
