Freedom of Information

If you are a public authority, a freedom of information request (FOI) can be both time consuming and costly to deal with.

With our expertise in handling requests, we will support you through the process.

We will:

  • Provide an FOI procedure and checklist
  • Advise you on whether the request is a valid FOI
  • Help you identify what information is required
  • Support you in the various stages of dealing with a request
  • Advise you when you can refuse a request
  • Assist you if you wish to claim an exclusion from the duty to confirm or deny that you have the information
  • Advise you if you can make a charge
  • Assist you to draft appropriate responses
