Will the Cabinet Secretary state how many Freedom of Information Requests were submitted by Assembly Members to the Welsh Government in 2015, 2016, 2017, and how many were answered within the statutory time frame?
Answered by First Minister | Answered on 26/04/2018
The figures requested are in the table below. These figures refer to all requests made under the statutory access to information regime and include requests made under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, The Data Protection Act 1998 and the Environmental Information Regulations 2004. This is consistent with the way statistics on information requests are published.
