| Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOI), every month there are around fifteen decisions published by the Information Commissioner and two or three by the Information Tribunal. This workshop examines all the latest decisions and guidance and applies them to real life scenarios. It is also packed full of exercises designed to teach delegates the key factors to be considered when making decisions about exemptions and the Public Interest Test. Time will also be devoted to practising the drafting of Refusal Notices, a subject which the Information Commissioner has drawn attention to in his decisions. |
