Section 6 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000:

only applies to a company owned by a single public authority rather
than a collection of public authorities. This is a well-known loophole
(because the drafters of the act didn't, presumably, take advice when
drafting it).

To be fixed in the Protection of Freedoms Bill:

we hope. I think TS is to be thanked for that.

So does that mean we need to wait until the PoF Bill is law before we can finally force them to answer questions like this?
