  1. Battle Town Council spent £1810 on mugs to mark the Queen's Diamond Jubilee: bit.ly/KawjEj
  2. @bainesy1969 besides EIR is even worse as it doesn't even need to be written down. Next time I'm in Wilmslow, I'm taking my megaphone! :D
  3. @bainesy1969 I'm unconvinced - I don't want to see a set form of words become a barrier to accessing info by those w/o good knowledge of FOI
  4. @BigH155 @tim2040 That depends on the question. Budget info. like this has been released in the past for example... and even MI5 answer EIRs
  5. @tim2040 Yep and I don't think they mind that.
  6. Forget ICO guidance, the Met. Police quoted and linked to the Al Qaeda training manual when refusing this FOI request: bit.ly/JfoSds
  7. @FoIManUK Good luck :-)
  8. @FoIManUK Are you doing it tomorrow? Pretty tough going today as audio only feed meant it took me a while to figure out who was who! :s
  9. The Royal Air Force has released a Defence Instructions & Notices document about the current RAF Redundancy Programme: bit.ly/MfHu1i
