ODPM funding?

The Office of the Deputy Prime Minster may be considering extra funding and is currently consulting across local gov.

It is my understanding that via the Association of Council Secretaries and Solicitors there has been a questionnaire about about FOIA costs circulating, indicating there may be (to quote) "additional funding to assist us in meeting costs"

A report to the ODPM was requested by last Friday the 8th

As always I'll keep you posted when I hear more

Hopefully some news on the fees issue this week as well
