WhatDoTheyKnow Policy:Copyright

This page is based on an extract of WhatDoTheyKnow policy documentation. Please address any queries to WhatDoTheyKnow.com. The process of developing policies is ongoing and changes are to be expected.

Standard copyright response:

"As I'm sure you know, UK Freedom of Information law is "applicant blind", so anyone in the world can request the same information and get a copy of it. As such, we feel that it would be a waste of public money for us to take down this information and hence require you to respond to duplicate requests for the same information."

Exception: commercial copyright
