What they said back. RTI responses

Add a response you received

Filed one and heard back? This is the most useful thing anyone can give this ledger. Sixty-six of its eighty-four cases rest on reporting alone, which is exactly the flank a government uses to call a case media narrative. One official reply changes that.

Remove your own name and address first. An RTI reply is addressed to you personally, at your home. Cover those lines before you photograph or link anything. We will not publish a document that still carries them.
Record a refusal or a silence exactly as readily as an answer. They are the more useful outcomes, not the failures.
An editor reads every one of these before it appears against a case. Nothing here publishes itself.
