Right to Information Act 2009

Notes—

1 See part 2 for how to exercise this right to access.

2 Exclusions of the right are provided for under part 4 (which provides particular circumstances where an entity may refuse to deal with an application) and section 47 (which provides grounds on which an entity may refuse access).

3 A limitation on the right is set out in section 73 (which provides that, in particular circumstances, an entity may delete irrelevant information from a document before giving access).

Note—

Section 27 deems an access application to apply only to documents that are, or may be, in existence on the day the application is received.
