Scottish FOIA under review



According to latest posting by Out-Law news, the Scottish Executive will be reviewing the Freedom of Information Act. Its remit will cover the Act in general, 'the fees regime, statutory prohibitions to disclosure of information, general feedback on discharge of functions under the Act and any areas where difficulty is arising'. One website that I would recommend readers to visit is the Scottish Executive webpage. For an overview of the Scottish FOIA 2000, see http://www.scotland.gov.uk/government/foi/foioverview.pdf.
