Making a Freedom of Information Request

CJI is fully committed to be as open and accountable as it can be. To that end all of our published reports are available to download free of charge. However, under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 we are compelled to make information available to you upon request with certain exceptions. To find out more about these and other rights to information we suggest you visit the site of the information commissioner. If you want to make a request for information from CJI please follow the step-by step guide below so that we can respond as soon as we can.

Individual rights

Individuals also have the right under the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act to request copies of information not available under publication schemes. Under the Data Protection Act (DPA) you may also request a copy of any personal data which CJI holds about you.

Your right to information

In most cases you will be able to obtain the information you seek simply by consulting CJI’s website or contacting our Business Support Team.

In the event that you do need to seek to obtain information from us under FOI you should follow our step by step guide to making a request for information.
