Hi all, Just wanted to let you know of an exciting FOI development here in Germany - the German Ministry of the Interior has issued Frag den Staat<https://fragdenstaat.de/>, (a German FOI portal run by the Open Knowledge Foundation Germany) with a cease and desist order, for publishing a document on EU party quotas which they obtained under the FOI law. More details about this here: http://blog.fragdenstaat.de/post/74158554995/cease-and-desist-by-the-german-government-for in English, and here: https://fragdenstaat.de/presse/2014-01-21-bmi-mahnt-fragdenstaat-ab/ in German. If you'd like more information or to help on the campaign (we'd love to raise awareness about this globally!) - please get in touch with project lead, Stefan Wehrmeyer on stefan.wehrme...@okfn.org Thanks!
