Dear all, Further to the Council for Chief FOI Officers recommendation....
I am aware of several networks.... ....eg in the USA there is <http://www.accesspro.org/>; in Canada, there is <http://www.pacc-ccap.ca (thanks Toby!); in England there is this list freedom-of-informat...@jiscmail.ac.uk which is quite active and tends to be used by public authority FOI officers seeking advice/guidance on how to deal with problems and in Scotland there is the "Scottish Public Information Forum" (which is virtual and in limbo these days).... Are colleagues aware of such networks in their jurisdictions?
