This live and interactive workshop is designed to teach delegates the basics of the Freedom of Information Act. Its focus is on enabling delegates to understand what a valid FOI request is, and what steps a public authority has to take in response to the request, including time scales, advising and assisting applicants. It will provide a brief introduction to the FOI exemptions and how to refuse a request.

It is ideal for new employees (on induction) as well as those requiring a basic knowledge of FOI.
