Colleagues
Episode 9 of the UK’s first Freedom of Information podcast has just been
published.
In September and October 2007, the Information Commissioner published thirty
eight decisions whilst the Information Tribunal published nine. My latest
podcast guides you through some of these:
In this episode we will be discussing decisions involving
* Vexatious requests and what makes them such
* Disclosure of celebrity pay packets by the BBC
* Disclosure of staff attendance at work
* The applicability of section 21 to information on the internet
* The link between the fees provisions and section 16
* The first Tribunal decision on disclosure of dead peoples’ information
* AND disclosure of information about police speed meters
You can listen directly to the podcast at : www.informationlaw.org.uk
All you need is Windows Media Player or Real Player (most computers have
these or are freely downloadable) and a set of headphones.
The direct raw feed is : http://informationlaw.jellycast.com/podcast/feed/5
(Note this only works with specialist podcast software.)
You may wish to pass this on to colleagues as many practitioners have found
it an excellent way of keeping them up to date with FOI/EIR.
If you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact me.
