Government responds to the Power of Information Review

I'm happy to see that the Government has accepted most of the recommendations in the Power of Information review. You can see Sam Smith's annotatable version here.

I'll try to keep a close eye on what acceptance means in practice, and will hopefully be able to answer questions from the implementation teams. I may even start referring all the people who phone and email asking if they can get postcodes & boundaries & maps for their non-profit purposes towards the civil servants responsible for getting them more information ;)
