Guides for RTI & Information
All guidesMy RTI application was rejected — how do I challenge it?
Time-sensitiveA rejected RTI is challenged by checking whether the refusal cites a valid Section 8 or 9 exemption with reasons, then filing a First Appeal within 30 days under Section 19(1) and, if needed, a Second Appeal to the Information Commission within 90 days under Section 19(3).
Read the stepsI filed an RTI but got no reply — what now?
ImportantIf the PIO does not reply to your RTI within 30 days, the law treats it as a deemed refusal, so you can file a First Appeal under Section 19(1) within 30 days and, if still ignored, a Second Appeal to the Information Commission under Section 19(3).
