| Basic Account Holder Help the CAG!! Download our toolbar  |  Freedom Of Information ( support the freedom from red tape campaign) Have you ever wondered what they know about and we don't? It would seem statistics are kept by government organisations and departments for there purpose and use. The freedom of information act gives an individual a statutory right to information from any of these body's. There is a myth within the workers of these organisation that the department will not listen to a request because it costs them money. Even worse some people could be put off making a request because they do not want to be known by the officials department. Sadly this act dose not cover private organisations but most of these organisations are related to some sort of mediation body's and these are covered by regulation. You have a statutory right to this information. I say with the greatest respect to these departments make those requests and remember to share the information you receive with  ( I welcome comments on this campaign from site users and administrators) |
