Indeed…there are a substantial amount of government departments and local Authorities who have failed – and continually fail to implement the FOI act as required.

The tribunals should be financial penalising these miscreants even if us appellants donate it back to charity. This case shows clearly that there was deliberate and wilful obscufation which is unacceptable in this day and age.

Most if not all government departments and local authorities apparently can disregard the EIR.
