Freedom of Information
The Buried File
Uncomfortable truths get buried. Sometimes the shovel is a Freedom of Information request left unanswered. Every request we make is logged here: who we asked, what we asked for, the date the law says they must answer by, and what came back. Public bodies have 20 working days. When they run past it, we count every day.
The first requests are on their way. This page fills up as they go out, and keeps count of every day an answer is late.
