Records that fall within an exempt category may be required to disclose that portion of the record containing non-exempt information.
Government officials and employees are well aware that the public has the right to access government information, but it is not always clear what information must be made available and what information should be kept confidential. Requests can be denied either expressly, for a variety of reasons or implicitly or by operation of the Act which treats any non-response within set time limits as a denial. This white paper reviews exclusions and exemptions provisions that more commonly occur in FOIA requests.
