Statute overview

About this statute

This Order sets a deadline for giving information or explanations about not providing them. An information officer must decide on information requests quickly, normally within 3 working days, with shorter deadlines for life-or-liberty and journalist requests, and may ask the Ombudsman for up to a 14-working-day extension in complex or high-volume cases. An information officer must request an extension of time from the competent authority, using any official language and a permitted oral, written, or electronic form. An information officer must transfer a request to the right organ within 2 days if the information is held elsewhere, and must notify the applicant within 4 days when a transfer happens. The receiving organ must decide within 7 days. If an information request is rejected in whole or in part, the information officer must send the applicant a written order within 2 working days.
