The Times - "Complaint frees court information"

The Times - 23rd August

"THE public’s right to access information held by the Scottish Executive was highlighted by the Scottish Information Commissioner yesterday.

Kevin Dunion said that he wanted to raise public awareness of appeal procedures after the successful conclusion of the first ever formal complaint made under the Code of Practice on Access to Scottish Executive Information.

The case, the first to be considered by the commissioner, involved a newspaper’s attempts to access information held by the Scottish Courts Service."
