University College London is conducting an online survey on the impact of the Freedom of Information Act, and is seeking views from anyone who has requested information from a central government department.
Freedom of information aims to make government transparent and accountable to its citizens. The intention of the survey is to evaluate to what extent it has worked.
The findings from the survey will help to clarify the costs and benefits of the Freedom of Information Act, particularly in relation to government accountability, public understanding, participation in politics and the quality of government decision-making.
The survey is being hosted by an external website. If you have any questions about the survey, please contact Ben Worthy at UCL via email or by calling 020 7679 4974.
