#foifriday — Public Fediverse posts

There's always something you can #FOI about any topic (if #FOIFriday shows anything, it shows that!).

So #election week, and a request with the answer to why do we use pencils to vote?

This, and other brief distractions from the general election results: https://clairemiller.net/2024/07/freedom-of-information-in-the-news-week-ending-5-7-2024-foifriday

There seems to be somewhat of a theme to this week's #FOIFriday.

It might not be surprising, a lot of these are classic #FOI requests...

The theme of this week's #FOIFriday is the use of #FOI to reveal poor and/or illegal behaviour.

Reminder to make 2024 the year you challenge some unreasonable-looking #FOI refusals.
