DATE: 12 November 2002 NUMBER OF PAGES INCLUDING THIS COVER: 2
Please see paragraph 3 of Dr Clarke's letter. My understanding is that the 30
year rule is in accordance with the Public Records Act. Do you know what will
happen to this when the Freedom of Information Act comes in in January 2005.
I assume that our files would still generally be closed in accordance with the
PRA but that the public can request information from them under the FOIA.
I would be grateful for any advice you can give me on this.
