The Freedom of Information Act 2000 gives a general right of access to all types of recorded information held by public authorities, sets out exemptions from that right and places a number of obligations on public authorities. Any individual or organisation can make a request for information. Any person who makes a request to a public authority must be informed whether the authority holds such requested information, and subsequently supplied with a copy of that information. The Act does however include a range of exemptions that preclude disclosure of certain information from that right of access... For further information regarding exemptions, please see ‘The exemptions' in the guidance page on the Information Commissioner's website: www.
