Question: (Last edited: Wednesday, 18 January 2023, 2:15 PM)Officials are required to give information about themselves and their families under the law. Can the public request this kind of information? Should it be given? | ||
|---|---|---|
| Answer: Not necessarily so. This may be private or personal information that is exempted under Section 8(1)(j). Again, this must be decided on a case-by-case basis. If larger public interest justifies the disclosure of such information, it must be given. | ||
